The gulf that separated me from Christ, my Lord
It was so vast the crossing I could never ford;
From where I was to His domain, it seemed so far
I cried, "Dear Lord, I cannot come to where you are."
He came to me, O, He came to me
When I could not come to where He was, He came to me
That's why He died on Calvary
When I could not come to where He was, He came to me
He came to me when I was bound in chains of sin
He came to me when I possessed no hope within
He picked me up and He drew me gently to His side
Where, today, in His sweet love I now abide
He came to me, O, He came to me
When I could not come to where He was, He came to me
That's why He died on Calvary
When I could not come to where He was, He came to me
Yes, He came to me, O, He came to me
When I could not come to where He was, He came to me
That's why He died on Calvary
When I could not come to where He was, He came to me
When I could not come to where He was, He came to me
