More Than Life to Me { More Than Life to Me MORE THAN LIFE TO ME-James M. Black More Than Life to Me } Once my heart was full of sorrow, And my spirit bowed with grief, Nightly longed I for the morrow, But it brought me no relief. Sin with cruel fetters bound me, Vainly sought I for release, Till the precious Savior found me, Bringing hope and joy and peace. Night has faded into morning, Sin and sorrow flown away. Glorious light my soul a dorning Bids me praise Him all the day. All the chains of sin are broken And my soul's at liberty, And I know it by this token- He is more than life to me. Chorus Glory be to Christ, my Savior, He has set my spirit free; Now I'm resting in His favor, He is more than life to me.
