I fell in a pit so dark, so deep
I was robbed of everything I ever owned
I was taken,
I was chained.
It was a trap ,
It was a snare.

There was no escape ,
There was no help.
I lay in the pit,
And cried all night.
I remembered the days of the past
Memories consoled me
They put me to sleep

Then came a shout ,so fierce and so strong,
There was a voice calling out my name
Louder and louder came the voice,
Someone had come outside my pit,

His arms were strong
His arms were iron
He threw in the ropes
And let me out
He fed me with bread
And gave me to drink

He cleaned up my wounds
And clothed me with joy
I would have been dead,
If it wasn’t for my Saviour!

I would have been lost,
If it wasn’t for my Saviour !

Blessly Blessen
