Verse 1

     C                       G7  C
Once my soul was astray from the heavenly way
                   G7       C
I was wretched and blind as could be
                      F             C
But my Savior in love gave me peace from above
                     G7       C
When he reached down his hand for me

Chorus

                             G7
When the Savior reached down for me
                     G7       C
When he reached down his hand for me
  C            F                     C
I was lost and undone without God or his Son
                     G7       C
When he reached down his hand for me

Verse 2

How my heart does rejoice when I hear his sweet voice
In a tempest to him I can cling
I can lean on his arm safe and sure from all harm
                     G7       C
When he reaches down his hand for me
