This Is My Story

INTRO (John)
This is my story:
The Lord has called me to walk with Him,
I must turn from my own path
And begin again.
Yes, I am a witness to the Lord’s goodness and mercy.
Jesus died on the cross to grant me life.

VERSE (John)
I have heard the good news, now I must make a choice
To continue in my own way or to listen to His voice.
Thank God, I am a witness to the Lord’s goodness and mercy.
Jesus died on the cross to grant me life.

CHORUS:
O Redeemer, come and take me home.
O Dear Saviour, Your dwelling is my abode;
To You, Lord, I belong; Your love, Lord, strengthens me.
Yes to You, Lord, I belong,
For Your love, Lord, makes me strong

VERSE 3 (Richard)
This is my story:
The serpent came at night,
Claiming that God is not good,
But emitting the stench of lies.
Well, I am a witness to the Lord’s goodness and mercy.
Jesus died on the cross to grant me life.

CHORUS:
O Redeemer, come and take me home.
O Dear Saviour, Your dwelling is my abode;
To You, Lord, I belong; Your love, Lord, strengthens me.
Yes, to You, Lord, I belong,
For Your love, Lord, makes me strong.

VERSE 4 (Richard)
The Lord keeps to His promises, for His love endures forever.
You can call upon Him in times of need, and you will be amazed.
See, I am a witness to the Lord’s goodness and mercy.
Jesus died on the cross to grant me life.

CHORUS:
O Redeemer, come and take me home.
O Dear Saviour, Your dwelling is my abode;
To You, Lord, I belong; Your love, Lord, strengthens me.
Yes, to You, Lord, I belong,
For Your love, Lord, makes me strong
