A while back, our music director challenged the congregation. He picked the hymn Great is Thy Faithfulness, and asked us to take the tune and write new lyrics. I think Cara was the only one to do it. Anyway, our music director really liked her song and we will be singing it in next Sunday morning's service. I am proud of her so thought I would post her song here:

Jesus Has Rescued Me
Verse 1:
I was a wanderer, lost in corruption
I had no hope, and my life was a wreck.
I cried out to the Lord, He heard my heartache.
Now I am happy as onward I trek.
(Chorus)
Jesus has rescued me
Jesus has rescued me
He heard my plea and He showed me His grace.
His love is constant, his mercy is boundless
Jesus has rescued me, my sins erased.
Verse 2:
Now I am satisfied, joyful, contented,
My Lord is with me when hardships appear
My God will comfort me, He will protect me,
With Him beside me, I’ve nothing to fear
(Chorus)
Jesus has rescued me
Jesus has rescued me
He heard my plea and He showed me His grace.
His love is constant, his mercy is boundless
Jesus has rescued me, my sins erased.
Verse 3:
If you are weary, and heavily laden
Jesus stands ready with arms open wide.
Run to Him swiftly, oh, He will embrace you,
For your redemption and ransom He died
(Chorus)
Jesus will rescue you
Jesus will rescue you
He’ll hear your plea and He’ll show you His grace
His love is constant, His mercy is boundless.
Jesus will rescue you, your sins erase.
