Despair sprang forth--entered my heart;
Sadness was there - right from the start.
Jesus gave back what Satan stole -
Lord, I now see you're in control.
Mighty and Holy is your name;
Seeking forgiveness from all shame.
Forgiveness from sin - made me whole -
Lord, I know you are in control.
Your steadfast love and hope... divine,
...directs me to the living Vine.
Your peace brings comfort to my soul -
Lord, I know you are in control.
Merciful in your loving ways,
With boundless love, I give you praise.
To keep your commands is my goal -
Lord, I know you are in control.
Thanking you for your love and grace;
Streets of Zion I will embrace.
When Christ opens the Holy scroll -
Lord, you're forever in control.
