122. He Saved Me Too

1 Once deep conviction the Lord on me did roll,
My heart was heavy, and anxious for my soul,
Friends were converted, by faith sav'd thro' and thro',
But while the Lord sav'd others, He sav'd me too.

Chorus:
Yes, He sav'd me too!
He sav'd me too!
While the Lord sav'd others,
He sav'd me too!

2 Once in a meeting, the pow'r of God was there,
Many were shouting His Name in praise and pray'r,
God gave me a blessing to those in ev'ry pew,
But while the Lord bless'd others, He bless'd me too.

Chorus:
Yes, He bless'd me too!
He bless'd me too!
While the Lord bless'd others,
He bless'd me too!

3 Once we were praying for more of pow'r divine,
That in His service we might arise and shine,
God sent His spirit, our fire He did renew,
But while the Lord fill'd others, He fill'd me too.

Chorus:
Yes, He fill'd me too!
He fill'd me too!
While the Lord fill'd others,
He fill'd me too!

4 God has a mansion prepared for you and me,
Where we will praise Him, through all eternity,
"I will receive you" His promises are true,
But when the Lord takes others, He'll take me too.

Chorus:
Yes, He'll take me too!
He'll take me too!
When the Lord takes others,
He'll take me too!
