New Song of the Month, Lyrics

I sought the Lord, and afterward I knew
He moved my soul to seek Him, seeking me;
It was not I that found, O Savior true;
No, I was found, was found of Thee.

Thou didst reach forth Thy hand and mine enfold;
I walked and sank not on the storm-vexed sea;
'Twas not so much that I on Thee took hold,
As Thou, dear Lord, took hold on me.

I find, I walk, I love; but, oh, the whole
Of love is but my answer, Lord, to Thee!
For Thou wert long beforehand with my soul;
Always, always Thou lovedst me.


I Sought the Lord (Him Seeking Me) - http://www.godlychristianmusic.com/music/play2.aspx?id=413&type=song.mp3 Most of the time the songs I post monthly, are singer written. However, this is an old psalter hymn, written by an anonymous source sometime before 1878.

This website has original songs from singer/songwriters. You have to weed through them, but there are many very nice songs to choose from. They have some really cute kid's songs and teen choruses. I am always looking for new songs to sing in church that others may have never heard of. There are also a lot of scripture songs, but be aware, not all use the KJV.
