Once in misery I walked alone, Self-sufficient but sad, But I found a friend to walk with me, And I tell you: I'm glad! Chorus When I came to him Christ came to me, Showed me what he planned that I should be; I was liberated there and then, O I'll never be the same again! 2. In the ruins of my life I stood, I was drowning in tears, But I found a friend to stand by me, And I lost all my fears. 3. Discontented with a pointless life, For direction I sighed; Life has point and purpose now for me, Since I made him my guide.
