Author: James Rowe Hymnal: Great Revival Hymns No. 2 #55 (1913) First Line: I was sunk in sin, despairing Refrain First Line: I've been lifted, thanks to Jesus Lyrics: 1 I was sunk in sin, despairing,
For no help I saw around;
But today, no burden bearing,
I am safe on solid ground.
Refrain:
I’ve been lifted, thanks to Jesus,
I’ve been lifted out of shame;
By His boundless grace and mercy,
I’ve been lifted, praise His name.
2 Tongue can never tell the sadness
Of a sinner’s burdened heart;
Tongue can never tell the gladness,
That the Saviour can impart. [Refrain]
3 I have left the lowlands dreary,
Plains of light today are mine;
And my soul will never weary
Of proclaiming grace divine. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [I was sunk in sin, despairing]
I've Been Lifted
