1. I am not skilled to understand
   What God hath willed, what God hath planned;
   I only know at His right hand
     Stands One who is my Savior.
2. I take Him at His word indeed:
   "Christ died for sinners"—this I read;
   For in my heart I find a need
     Of Him to be my Savior!
3. That He should leave His place on high
   And come for sinful man to die,
   You count it strange? So once did I
     Before I knew my Savior!
4. And, oh, that He fulfilled may see
   The travail of His soul in me,
   And with His work contented be,
     As I with my dear Savior!
5. Yes, living, dying, let me bring
   My strength, my solace from this spring—
   That He who lives to be my King
     Once died to be my Savior!

May 6, 2009Miss. Franklin VargheseMumbai, Maharashtra, IndiaThis song just speaks the 'HEART OUT' and is a 'FAITH BOOSTER'... It is really meaningful and touching... It just reminds us of God's loving-grace and mercy that was poured on the cross and that there is a future hope for us in Him...Indeed "My God He was, My God He is and My God He's always gonna be..." God Bless you...
