With a Word

She was lost, and the pain in her heart
Was far more than she could bear
Alone in the garden, it tore her apart
Till she heard Him speak her name

   Then hope dawned, and night broke
   And joy swelled in her soul
   She saw her Saviour standing there
   With a word He made her whole

I was scared, with no hope of salvation
Crying out in guilt and shame
So deep was the depth of dejection
Till I heard Him speak my name

   Then hope dawned, and night broke
   And joy swelled in my soul
   I saw my Saviour standing there
   With a word He made me whole

I am saved, and have joy and sweet succor
Beside me throughout each day
I take courage and know His good pleasure
When I hear Him speak my name

   When hope dawns, and night breaks
   And joy swells in my soul
   I see my Saviour standing there
   With a word He makes me whole
