I had lost my life and could not find my soul,
So I cried myself to sleep in a dark lonely hole.
When the Lord came down to lift me up,
He told me not to frown and gave me a big hug.

The Lord said I said I was his precious one,
So precious that He gave me His son.
He had died for you and me out of love,
And gave us great mercy from above.

And the Lord said unto me:
You say you lost your life and could not find your soul,
So you cried yourself to sleep in that dark lonely hole.
Think those thoughts no more for I bring you great news,
I am your Lord, the one who loves you.

If you believe what I say is true,
Close your eyes and sing me a joyful tune.
I whisper softly in that dark lonely hole,
You may have lost your life, but you have found your soul.
