Dearly Loved

Say I am weak I cannot deny

Declare my sin I have no reply

I’ve chased the world dishonoured your name

Holy God I’ve nowhere to hide

But say I’m loved it’s hard to believe

I want to earn before I receive

I long to hear that I am enough

To show you Lord that I’m worthy of love

Be still my soul your burden lay down

Your Saviour has said ‘You are dearly loved’

My life he bought my freedom he won

And I will believe I am dearly loved

What made me think your love could be bought

Or that your grace could be my reward

With empty hands I kneel at your cross

Here I am let me rest in your love

Be still my soul your burden lay down

Your Saviour has said ‘You are dearly loved’

My life he bought my freedom he won

And I will believe I am dearly loved

And in the dark the voice of my fear

Tells me to doubt give in to despair

But like the sun that conquers the night

Here is life my hope is in Christ

Be still my soul your burden lay down

Your Saviour has said ‘You are dearly loved’

My life he bought my freedom he won

And I will believe I am dearly loved
