Shackled by a heavy burden
'Neath a load of guilt and shame
Then the hand of Jesus touched me
And now I am no longer the same


* For He touched me, oh, he touched me
And oh the joy that floods my soul
Something happened and now I know
He touched me and made me whole


Oh since I met this blessed Saviour
Since He cleansed and made me whole
Oh I will never cease, never cease to praise him
I'll shout it while eternity rolls


* Repeat
