161. The Scales Have Fallen from My Eyes

1 The scales have fallen from my eyes,
And now I see with sweet surprise,
The way that sovereign grace has planned,
Salvation from my Saviour’s hand!

Refrain:
He died for me, He died for me!
The debt is paid, my soul is free!
Henceforth my life a song shall be,
A song of praise to Jesus.

2 What seemed so hard is easy now,
While at the cross I humbly bow;
One precious thought melts all my pride—
It was for me my Saviour died! [Refrain]

3 I never, never can forget
The sacrifice that paid my debt!
And since for me His life He’d give,
I’ll love and serve Him while I live! [Refrain]
