For All Eternity

Well I felt so lost and lonely
Even standing in a crowd
And though others claimed to love me
I felt like odd man out
I didn’t know which way to turn
Or how to stay afloat
I didn’t have the strength to try
Or a single shred of hope

Then You touched my heart
And You opened my eyes
You showered me with mercy
And gave me a new life
You washed away my sins
And then You set me free
So I’ll bow before You now
And for all eternity

I found what I was missing
My emptiness is gone
And I no longer worry
When I see approaching storms
For I stand upon a Rock now
That I know cannot be moved
And God the Father loves me
His Son’s the living proof

He touched my heart
And He opened my eyes
He showered me with mercy
And gave me a new life
He washed away my sins
And then He set me free
So I’ll worship Him now
And for all eternity

I can’t believe I waited
So long to see the Truth
All those years I wasted
Demanding to see proof
But now my heart is flooded
With faith and love so strong
That I just can’t stop praising
My King, my Lord, my God!

Cause He touched my heart
And He opened my eyes
He showered me with mercy
And gave me a new life
He washed away my sins
And then He set me free
So I’ll lift His name on high
For all eternity

He washed away my sins
And then He set me free
So I’ll sing to Him praises
For all eternity
