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.
