Lyrics

I was a sin­ner, but now I’m free,
His won­drous grace has res­cued me;
Once I was blind, but now I see,
A brand from the burn­ing,
He res­cued me.

Refrain

He res­cued me, His own to be,
A brand from the burn­ing, He set me free;
Oh, how I’ll praise Him thro’ eter­ni­ty,
A brand from the burn­ing, He res­cued me.

Once I was way­ward, afar would stray,
His won­drous grace has res­cued me;
Now I am on the King’s High­way.
A brand from the burn­ing, He set me free.

Refrain

Once ev­il led me, but now God reigns,
His won­drous grace has res­cued me;
Broken for e’er are sin’s dark chains,
A brand from the burn­ing, He set me free.
