15384. When Jesus Laid His Hand On Me

1 I was a sinner on life’s road,
As lonely as could be,
When first I heard the Savior’s voice
And felt His hand on me.

Refrain:
When Jesus laid His hand on me,
When Jesus laid His hand on me,
My heart forgot its love for sin,
When Jesus laid His hand on me.

2 The fields of sin I loved so well,
Were clothed with blackest night,
When Jesus with His healing touch
Restored my blinded sight. [Refrain]

3 My soul had lost its love for prayer
Thro’ sorrow, grief and pain,
Till Jesus laid His hand on me,
And bade me live again. [Refrain]
