A Sinner Made Whole

There’s a song in my heart that my lips cannot sing,
’Tis praise in the highest to Jesus my King;
Its music each moment is thrilling my soul,
For I was a sinner, but Christ made me whole.

Refrain

A sinner made whole! A sinner made whole!
The Savior has bought me and ransomed my soul!
My heart now is singing; there’s joy in my soul,
For I was a sinner, but Christ made me whole.

I shall stand one day faultless and pure by His throne,
Transformed from my image, conformed to His own;
Then I shall find words for the song of my soul,
For I was a sinner, but Christ made me whole.

Refrain

All the music of Heaven, so perfect and sweet,
Will blend with my song just to make it complete,
Thro’ ages unending the echoes will roll,
For I was a sinner, but Christ made me whole.
