Set Apart -Shirley Jean Davis

 

I had been wondering down the path

Leading to sure destruction

When I heard the good news of Jesus

And felt God’s glorious unction

 

I listened on the edge of my seat

As the minister told the old, old story

Of peace and love gave to mankind

A free gift full of grace and glory

 

I felt a yearning in my soul

A great tugging at my heart calling

I knew I had to raise my hands

It felt like I was falling

 

A “glory!” issued from my lips

As I sang of Jesus’ wondrous love

I felt the Holy Spirit moving inside

Sent from God’s throne from above

 

I felt I was soaring to Heaven

Above with God’s angel choir

Set free from the chains of sin

My heart became full of blazing fire

 

A new song can I now sing

Deep down in my heart

Since I met my loving King

And have been set apart
