A Sinner Like Me Lyrics
by Charles J. Butler
I was once far away from the Savior, As vile as a sinner could be, And I wondered if Christ the Redeemer Could save a poor sinner like me. I wandered on in the darkness, Not a ray of light could I see; And the thought filled my heart with sadness, “There’s no hope for a sinner like me.” And then, in that dark, lonely hour, A voice sweetly whispered to me That Christ the Redeemer has power To save a poor sinner like me. I listened—and lo! ’twas the Savior That was speaking so kindly to me; I cried, “I’m the chief of sinners; Thou canst save a poor sinner like me!” I then fully trusted in Jesus; And, oh, what a joy came to me! My heart was filled with His praises For saving a sinner like me. No longer in darkness I’m walking, For the light is now shining on me, And now unto others I’m telling How He saved a poor sinner like me. And when life’s journey is over, And I the dear Savior shall see, I’ll praise Him forever and ever For saving a sinner like me.
