Once I Was Dead In Sin Hymn Lyrics

1. Once I was dead in sin,
And hope within me died;
But now I’m dead to sin,
With Jesus crucified.

And can it be that “He loved me,
And gave Himself for me”?

2. O height I cannot reach!
O depth I cannot sound:
O love, O boundless love,
In my Redeemer found!

3. O cold, ungrateful heart,
That can from Jesus turn,
When living fires of love
Should on His altar burn.

4. I live- and yet not I,
But Christ that lives in me,
Who from the law of sin
And death hath made me free.
