My Soul Will Magnify the Lord
Lyrics
Based on Psalm 107
CCLI Song. No. 3233058
Key: G
Refrain
My soul will magnify the Lord
I will sing and give thanks unto His name
He has rescued me from the gates of death
His love endures forevermore
Verse 1
I wandered in a waste land,
Finding no home in city or town
My life was going nowhere
I could not settle down
So hungry and thirsty, my energy ebbed away
Then I cried to the Lord
And He delivered me that day
Verse 2
In darkness and in deepest gloom
A prisoner was I
Suffering and bound in chains
I had rebelled against God Most High
Worn out from working like a slave
Alone and so afraid
Then I cried to the Lord
And He came to my aid
Verse 3
So foolish and rebellious
I followed sinful ways
In terrible pain I hated food
I could not live another day
In serious trouble I would have been in my grave
Then I cried to the Lord
And from my distress was saved
Verse 4
I travelled over land and sea
And saw God’s wonderful deeds
But then there came a terrible storm
And I was in desperate need
Tossed about by the mighty waves
My courage melted away
Then I cried to the Lord
And the sea hushed, His voice obeyed
