Lyrics:
VERSE 1
Long ago
Before You made the stars above
You set Your everlasting love on us
And Your love endures
With tender cords
You drew us who had strayed so far
And like a might warrior stormed our hearts
Until we were Yours
CHORUS
So we will sing this song of gladness
Lift our hearts and holy hands
We will sing to You who loved us
We’ll sing the song of the Lamb
We’ll sing the song of the Lamb
VERSE 2
All our sins
Have made a chasm deep and wide
We could never reach the other side
’Til You came to save
Glorious God
Emptied to become like us
A humble servant taking up a cross
To pour out Your grace
