PRECIOUS LOVE

In the dark days when I didn't know You,
Even though I called Your name,
Oh You listened and You waited for the day,
And the time came when I realised,
That You had taken the blame,
For every single man who'd gone astray,
And the scales fell from round about my eyes oh Lord,
As in the first step of faith I realised,
How the devil twists and turns,
So that man may never learn,
Of his deception and all his hidden lies,
Of his deception and all his hidden lies.

In the light You shed I grow now,
And I often call Your name,
And You listen and direct me everywhere,
Oh let me grow still closer now,
And never be ashamed,
Of the precious love that You and I both share,
Let that love grow stronger as each hour passes by,
Let Your love shine through me and lift my spirits high,
Let me be aware, that You are always there,
In the laughter and the tears that I may cry,
In the laughter and the tears that I may cry.
