Weary and sick with sin,
And on His shoulders brought me
Into His flock again.
While angels in His presence sang
Until the courts of heaven rang.
Oh, the blood that bought me!
Oh, the grace that brought me to the flock,
Wondrous grace that brought me to the flock!
And poured in oil and wine;
He whispered to assure me,
“I’ve found thee, thou art Mine:”
I never heard a sweeter voice,
It made my aching heart rejoice.
For me His blood was shed;
A mocking crown so thorny,
Was placed upon His head:
I wondered what He saw in me,
To suffer such deep agony.
The sunshine of His face,
While with adoring wonder
His blessings I retrace.
It seems as if eternal days
Are far too short to sound His praise.
All now is perfect rest;
I’m waiting for the morning,
The brightest and the best,
When He will call us to His side,
To be with Him, His spotless Bride.

Oh the love that sought me. The older I get the more I realize just how great that love is. Oh the blood that bought me. I always need the blood. What a price the Lord paid to redeem me. His blood is priceless! Oh the grace that brought me to the flock. I use to think I was special because I came to the church. Now I realize it was just Christ as grace leading me tenderly. What a Shepherd we have!

So, touching this song. The author might have been greatly blessed even so I. Full of touching words and their meaning has no limits.
I was reading D L Moody book “ wondrous Love” this song again and again rolling and blessing me. By the way who wrote this song. Where I can download great songs and the history of song writers

I’m sitting in His presence,
The sunshine of His face,
While with adoring wonder
His blessings I retrace.
It seems as if eternal days
Are far too short to sound His praise.

I also wonder what He saw in me
To suffer such deep agony.
Psalm 144:3 says "O Jehovah, what is man, that You take knowledge of him, / And the son of mortal man, that You think of him?"
I am nothing but He suffered deep agony to redeem me. My days are like a passing shadow but He laid down His life for me and sought me that I may return to Him. O how sweet it is to remember our Shepherd and Savior!
