From The Depths Of Sin And Failure

From the depths of sin and failure,

From despair as black as night,

Lord, we hear our brothers calling

For deliverance and for light.

Refrain

Use us, Lord, to speed Thy kingdom;

Through us may Thy will be done;

Give us eyes to see the vision

Of a world redeemed and won.

By the love that bore in silence

Man's contempt and Satan's dart;

By the longing for the lost ones

That consumes the Savior's heart;

Refrain

By the Savior's blood that bought us,

By the peace His merits bring,

By the Spirit that constrains us

Now on earth to crown Him King;
