I've Found Thee (Hymn Song)

My heart beat's a faithful song
once covered by my sin,
hidden by darkness - buried within
'twas then behold; thine light broke in
'twas there in me all along.

(Chorus)
I've found thee, I've found thee
O my Lord - my soul to be;
In thine grace and warm embrace,
O my Lord - thou-st shine in me.

I've felt the sorrow and despair
in many a dark day
swoon did I, to kneel and pray
then a beacon, in me to stay,
answered my Lord; my prayer.

I've found thee, I've found thee
O my Lord - my soul to be;
In thine grace and warm embrace,
O my Lord - thou-st shine in me.

Now I view thy splendorous light
in the essence of all I see
a baby's eyes - a beggars' plea
a mourners' tears - majestic tree
O Lord, thy light so bright

I've found thee, I've found thee
O my Lord - my soul to be;
In thine grace and warm embrace
O my Lord - thou-st shine in me.

Now I swim in thine river of love
flowing with the currents of faith,
living the words my Lord saith
No more I dwell in wraith
Unto thee; within and above.

(Chorus)
