Far Away My Steps Had Wandered,
Long In Paths Of Sin I Strayed,
Till My Wayward Heart Deceived Me,
And The World My Trust Betrayed:
Then I Cried,
“There’s None Can Help Me,
None Whose Love
Can Soothe My Woe.”
When I Heard A Voice
That Whispered,
“Child, I Loved Thee Long Ago.”
“Long Ago, Long Ago;
Child, I Loved Thee Long Ago:”
Oh, How Sweet
The Voice That Whispered,
“Child, I Loved Thee Long Ago!”
Through His Mercy He Received Me,
All My Sins He Washed Away;
At His Feet I Knelt And Praised Him
For The Joy I Found That Day.
Now Amid The Verdant Pastures,
Where The Tranquil Waters Flow,
Still I Hear His Voice Repeating,
“Child, I Loved Thee Long Ago.”
“Long Ago, Long Ago;
Child, I Loved Thee Long Ago:”
Oh, How Sweet
The Voice That Whispered,
“Child, I Loved Thee Long Ago!”
Come To Him, O Heavy Laden;
Only Trust, And He’ll Forgive;
To The Cross,
Where Once He Suffered,
Lo, He Bids Thee Look And Live.
If By Faith And True Repentance
Thou Wilt Ask His Love To Know
Surely Thou Wilt Hear Him Answer,
“Child, I Loved Thee Long Ago.”
“Long Ago, Long Ago;
Child, I Loved Thee Long Ago:”
Oh, How Sweet
The Voice That Whispered,
“Child, I Loved Thee Long Ago!”
