We had turned from God to sin's disgrace We chose the path to hell Perfect law of God condemned our race For all in Adam fell But the righteousness of God appeared And the world found hope again For the Righteous One has come down to bear All the curse of sin and death
Now to Him Who's seated on the throne All glory be forever Oh, the depths of wisdom, grace, and power All glory be forever All glory be forever
Every bond of sin that held us fast Is left in Jesus' grave We've been freed from all that gripped our past From Satan's rule and reign We've been raised to life to breathe His grace As captives now reclaimed All our guilt is gone, all our strivings ceased We're alive to seek His fame
Now our future's fixed, our journey clear God will not let us go Every trial that tempts our hearts to fear He'll use to give us hope All creation groans as we await What our eyes have longed to see Every pain and evil we've long endured Will be crushed by Christ our King
