"You Sought Me" by James Cheesman
This is a song inspired by the message of Romans 5:8, "God demonstrates his own love for us in this: that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us." #worshipsongcontest

I sought sin but the Savior sought me,
I ran towards what was so empty
As I was filled with depravity,
Jesus came and he rescued me.
You sought me, your blood has bought me, hallelujah
All glory, all praise, be to you God!
I sought lies but the truth sought me,
I was deceived by the enemy,
And though all the lies had enslaved me,
The Word of Truth came to set me free.
And I can almost believe that a man would dare to die,
For a very righteous one who deserves such sacrifice,
But I can’t fathom, that God would look and see,
All the sins I have committed, and still come to die for me.
I have hope since my Savior sought me,
I now have life abundantly,
And 'till the end Christ will keep me,
To live with him for eternity!
You sought me, your blood has bought me, hallelujah
All glory, all praise, be to you God!
Your passion, your pow’r, has saved me, hallelujah
All glory, all praise, be to you God!
I sought sin but the Savior sought me.
- Amen!
- Amen!
- Amen!
