Anna Benton The Story Lyrics

Verse 1
I had fallen to a point that
I thought was past return
Darkness overwhelmed me
Oh how could you love me

Verse 2
The thief had come to steal
The path set out for me
But you saw me in my misery
Oh why did you choose me

(Chorus)
This is where love takes over
Where sin has no grip
Where the God of mercy sweeps in
And he says
I bring hope to the hopeless
I bring rest to the weary
I bring comfort to the brokenhearted And I love you just for who you are

Verse 3
You know the plans you made
For my future and my good
I trust you with my life
Won't you come move in me

(Chorus as above)
(Bridge)
Messiah
The one who claims my victory
The author of my story
The beginning and the end.
(repeats twice more)

God you bring
Hope to the hopeless
Rest to the weary
Comfort to the brokenhearted
And I love you just for who you are
