You Came Softly

I had known Your love, for a long, long time
Lived only by Your words, memorized each line
But I never knew all Your loving grace
Something that no words could ever replace

You came softly, hardly the way
That I had thought it would be
You gave Yourself so lovingly, now I know
That heaven is more than pearly gates
And golden streets so high above
'Cause I found heaven in Your sweet love

All too many times I lived selfishly
Not really seeing what my heart should see
Then Your Word became like a living light
Guiding me safely through the darkest night

You came softly, hardly the way
That I had thought it would be
You gave Yourself so lovingly, now I know
That heaven is more than pearly gates
And golden streets so high above
'Cause I found heaven in You

I found peace
With Your love
Worries cease
With Your love
I've got everything I need

You came softly, hardly the way
That I had thought it would be
You gave Yourself so lovingly, now I know
That heaven is more than pearly gates
And golden streets so high above
'Cause I found heaven in Your sweet love
