Come And See


A Mighty Arm

Copyright 1998.

In this song, I give my own testimony. You can blame my brother Steve for bringing me to the Lord. It's really his fault.

Lyrics



It was late, and the night was full of fear
And the sounds of the waves and the wind.
The water was crashing across the deck
And their courage was wearing thin,
But out in the storm, a form was walking
Walking upon the sea
And they cried in fear, that a ghost had appeared
But Jesus said, "It's Me."
Jesus said, "It's Me."


He was a fisherman afraid of the sea,
But he said, "Bid me come unto Thee."
And held up by his faith in his Lord,
He walked to Him on the sea.
But out in the storm, the waves were rolling
Rolling like hills on the sea.
And being filled with fear, and beginning to sink,
Peter cried out, "Lord, save me!"
Peter cried out, "Lord, save me!"


And with a mighty arm, the Lord reached out
To rescue a sinful man.
Yes, a Holy God reached out with love,
And took Peter up in His hand.
(repeat)

It was hot, and the day was full of fear,
And the sounds of the shouts of the crowd (Crucify Him!)
The blood ran down from the cuts on His back
And a crown of thorns on His brow.
But out in the street, a form was walking
Dragging a cross behind!
Going willingly, as a Lamb to the slaughter,
Knowing the death He would find.
Knowing the death He would find.


And He could have called twelve legions of angels
Anytime along that long and dusty road!
Yes, He could have healed those stripes upon His back,
Turned His back upon a sinful world
And looked the other way.
Thank God, He chose to stay.
Thank God, He chose to stay.

And with a mighty arm, the Lord reached out
To rescue a sinful man.
Yes, a Holy God reached out with love,
And took the nails in His hands.
(repeat)

It was dark and the night was full of guilt
As I lay awake in my bed.
Fighting against the sin in my heart
And the thoughts inside my head.
But deep in my heart, the Lord was knocking.
Knocking to let Him come in!
And with a touch of His hands,
He loosened my bands,
And He set me free from my sin.

And with a mighty arm, the Lord reached out
To rescue a sinful man.
Yes, a Holy God reached out with love,
And took me up in His hands.
(repeat)
