204.  AT ONE TIME
                .......  °EN.UN TIEMPO YO Fut
                  Luke 9.56 CALLING/ Eph 4.8 JOY

               At one time I was merely a captive,
              Incarcerated by the vile tempter was I;
           Without freedom in the ties of transgression,
            And I found myself in darkness and in pain.
                        CHORUS
             If you can hear the Savior's voice today,
            Though you may be imprisoned and in fear;
                Only my Lord can offer liberty,
           And Christ will grant forgiveness for your soul.
                           2
             If you're captive accept His forgiveness,
              The good Lord can erase all your sins;
          Christ has come to give salvation to the lost ones,
              And to give all who are captive liberty.
                           3
        One day the time came when I was freed from my sins,
            And the Lord has broken all of my chains;
          Christ has come to give salvation to the lost ones,
              And to give all who are captive liberty.

                Luke 15.4 BAPTISM/ Ez 34.22 CALLING
      One hundred were counted, lambs of the Shepherd's flock,
         One hundred were counted, He took them with love;
         But then one sad evening, He began to count them,
           //Surely one was missing// and sadly He cried.
                        CHORUS
          Ninety-nine He left there, in the flock behind Him,
       Through the mountains searching, the Shepherd went on;
        Then He found her weeping, trembling cold and lonely,
        //Her wounds he anointed// and took her back home.
