A tale as old as time itself
The child has strayed, yet the father forgives
Thus is the nature of God himself
Love everlasting he gives
Justice and mercy, go hand in hand
When healing the wounds of iniquity
Blessed be God, for He is good
Come in our hearts, make us holy
Chorus:
All hail the great Yahweh
The Alpha and Omega
We mere mortals are not worthy
That you should enter under our roof
Now is the time to kneel in awe
At the Father who gave his Son’s life
So that none may perish but that
all may be free of sin and strife
Filthy rags are what come of our deeds
Hands that sow death and sin
You, oh Lord, are the watchmaker
We are but your humble tools
It was told at the beginning of time
Spoken to Adam, the son of Man
Inscribed on that page, those poignant words,
Genesis 3:19
[Chorus]
“In the sweat of your face you shall eat bread till you return to the ground, for out of it you were taken; you are dust, and to dust you shall return.”
God in Heaven, has all that He needs
Omnipotent and all-knowing
But in His love he gave up His Son
So we may share in paradise
The devil flees in overwhelming terror
When confronted with the Truth
That neither powers nor principalities
Could separate us from Christ’s love
