Lord, How was it done?

May I commune with thee Oh Lord,
Wilt thou still hear my call?
The tears of life have come to me
Wilt thou catch my fall?

The pain and sorrow caused from sin
Do they still bar the way?
Is it too late to feel again
The soothing light of day?

To break through chains that bound me,
Lord how was it done?
When I was lost thou found me
With love, I'm overcome.

I have wandered far from home
And along the path was lost.
But I find that I am not alone,
My Lord, what was the cost?

To break through chains that bound me,
Lord how was it done?
When I was lost thou found me
With love, I'm overcome.

Dear Lord, thou hast not forsaken
Even when I could not hear
Myself, from thee I'd taken
Because of worldly fear.

I thank thee for thy faith in me.
Oh Lord, for I have felt,
The path, and man, thou wouldst have me be
For this cause have I knelt.

To break through chains that bound me,
Lord how was it done?
When I was lost thou found me
With love, I'm overcome.
