I never knew You, Lord,
Until that blessed day;
I never knew how much You loved me
Until I experienced Your grace.
I never knew You cared so much
Until I fell down at Your feet;
You showered me with mercy
And filled my heart with peace.
I never knew Your power
Until my weakness made it clear;
I saw You in a different light
Through a veil of cleansing tears.
I never knew You, Lord,
Until You changed my life that day;
And I will sing Your praises
Until I see You face to face.
