HE WAS REACHING DOWN TO ME

So often He did seek me so often He called my name

So often I ignored Him until I finally came

So often He forgave me for things I said and done

But now I am/ a brand new man/ through the blood of God’s Son

CHORUS

How could I have been so blind so deaf to His call

I knew the right way in my mind I guess I had to crawl

When I reached rock bottom no way out I could see

When I finally reached up to Him He was reaching down to me

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

So often I would stumble so often I tripped and fell

I was a prime candidate to end up in darkest hell

I gave Him every reason to turn and walk away

But still He stayed/ until I prayed and surrendered that day

REPEAT CHORUS

BRIDGE

Yes He was reaching down to me waiting there patiently

Saved me from that stormy sea and hell’s eternity

REPEAT CHORUS
