You Came As My Delivery

You came as my delivery
from a world that tried to overthrow
in storms and rain that did continuous flow,
at a time that I thought that I never would be free,

when I saw all my own iniquity,
when I did not know where to, to go
and men saw you as only human but you art not so
but by your Godly power you brought me to see

that you Jesus Christ, was still pointing the way,
that you know my troubles well,
was on my side throughout,
at the worst with me you chose to stay
in a world where men in war, in trouble and sickness dwell
you came to the rescue while I felt totally worn out.
