I had nowhere to run to
Nowhere to turn
I had long ago given up hope
My life was so empty
My mind so corrupt
I feared I had lost my soul

Then I heard about Jesus
Who so long ago
Bled and died so that I could be free
I cried out to Him
With a loud voice
Then He came and rescued me

What a marvelous thing it is to know
The one who can save a tortured soul
If you call to Him
His peace will come in
And turn every fear to hope

Now I tell everyone
Of His undying love
For He’s turned my whole life around
If you’re in despair
The solution is near
He’ll set your feet in solid ground

What a marvelous thing it is to know
The one who can save a tortured soul
If you call to Him
His peace will come in
And turn every fear to hope

Jesus my Savior
Jesus my Lord
Jesus my fortress and strength
Jesus Redeemer
The one I adore
He’ll be with me until the end

What a marvelous thing it is to know
The one who can save a tortured soul
If you call to Him
His peace will come in
And turn every fear to hope
