The Promise |
The Lord God said when time was full |
He would shine His light in the darkness |
He said a virgin would conceive |
And give birth to the promise |
For a thousand years the dreamers dreamt |
And hoped to see His love |
But the promise showed their wildest dreams |
Had simply not been wild enough |
The promise showed their wildest dreams |
Had simply not been wild enough |
The promise was love and the promise was life |
The promise meant light to the world |
Living proof Jehovah saves |
For the name of the promise was Jesus |
The faithful one saw time was full |
And the ancient pledge was honored |
So God the Son, the incarnate one |
His final Word, His own Son |
Was born in Bethlehem |
But came into our hearts to live |
What more could God have given |
Tell me what more did He have to give |
What more could God have given |
Tell me what more did He have to give |
The promise was love and the promise was life |
The promise meant light to the world |
Living proof Jehovah saves |
For the name of the promise was Jesus |
The promise was love and the promise was life |
The promise meant light to the world |
Living proof Jehovah saves |
For the name of the promise was Jesus |
Living proof Jehovah saves |
For the name of the promise was Jesus |
