  • When I Was Lost
    Words and Music by Kate & Miles Simmonds
    www.katesimmonds.com
    "When I Was Lost" is a song I first encountered in 2004, and it obviously left quite the impression. It's one of the clearest explorations of salvation, new life, and identity in Christ ever put to music! This virtual choir version was brought to life by 156 singers and ASL interpreters from 35 countries. They had only 7 days to learn, record, and upload their performance (and I had less than 2 weeks to edit everything together). This is the second of three smaller ("pop-up") projects to finish off 2020. Instrumental accompaniment provided by me - just a simple arrangement representing how I might lead this song with a congregation.

    When I was lost You came and rescued me,
    Reached down into the pit and lifted me.
    O Lord, such love, I was as far from You as I could be.
    You know all the things I've ever done,
    But Jesus' blood has cancelled every one.
    O Lord, such grace to qualify me as Your own.
    There is a new song in my mouth,
    There is a deep cry in my heart,
    A hymn of praise to Almighty God, hallelujah!
    And now I stand firm on this Rock,
    My life is hidden now with Christ in God.
    The old has gone and the new has come, hallelujah!
    Your love has lifted me.
    Now I have come into Your family,
    For the Son of God has died for me.
    O Lord, such peace,
    I am as loved by You as I could be.
    In the full assurance of Your love
    Now with every confidence we come.
    O Lord, such joy to know that You delight in us.
    Many are the wonders You have done,
    Many are the things that You have planned.
    How beautiful the grace that gives to us all that we don't deserve,
    All that we cannot earn, but is a gift of love. Your love has lifted me.

    This song has beautiful lyrics. Most modern worship songs are missing the fact that we are sinners and should be lost. It is only the grace of God that rescues us. Many modern worship songs are just singing of grace and love while ignoring sin. Thank you for this beautiful song!

      You nailed it! Telling part of the message is equivalent to telling a lie. Yes God is Grace and Love. He is also Judge of who reject him and this needs to be clearly communicated.

    I'm a fan of this series but this is the first hymn that I didn't already know that I am inspired to try in my own church. I've now listened to some other versions of the song and this is definitely the best - not just because of the great choir, but I also think it is the 'right' speed and the arrangement is great. The other versions are OK but don't have the wow factor that this one does.
