He woke me from a dream of dust
Since the first time I touched His hem
And purged me of self-righteousness
Since the first time I touched His hem
He keeps me safe in a world of greed
Since the first time I touched His hem
And gives me everything I need
Since the first time I touched His hem
Oh, praise Him
Just praise Him
Yes, praise Him for His Love
Oh, praise Him
Yes, praise Him
Thank him for His wonderful Love
He shelters me from misery and pain
Since the first time I touched His hem
And brings me in out of the rain
Since the first time I touched His hem
He cleanses me of my foolish pride
Since the first time I touched His hem
And lifts me above the worlds' wild ride
Since the first time I touched His hem
Oh, praise Him
Just praise Him
Yes, praise Him for His Love
Oh, praise Him
Yes, praise Him
Thank him for His wonderful Love
He leads me on in comfort and joy
Since the first time I touched His hem
And helps me to see sin's evil ploy
Since the first time I touched His hem
He tells me what He's all about
Since the first time I touched His hem
And shows me how to put fear out
Since the first time I touched His hem
Oh, praise Him
Just praise Him
Yes, praise Him for His Love
Oh, praise Him
Yes, praise Him
Thank him for His wonderful Love
Now I must go and sin no more
Since the first time I touched His hem
‘Cause He’s opened up the Kingdom’s door
Since the first time I touched His hem
Since the first time
Since the very first time
Since the first time I touched His hem
Since the first time
Since the very first time
Since the first time I touched His hem
