Lyrics
When the time had fully come
The Father sent the Holy One
To a sinful world to pay the awful ransom.
And to those who walk in darkness
A pure and mighty light has shone.
It is he who was, and is, and is to come.
(Chorus)
Before the world was formed
He was the Chosen Lamb,
The only Son of God
Who made himself the Son of Man.
He is the righteous One who died that sinful man might live.
He is I Am, and I am His.
He is the Life and the Resurrection
Unto all who but believe.
He's the Alpha and Omega
And the Prince of Peace.
And though one with God the Father,
He did not grasp equality.
So the Man of Sorrows died upon the tree.
(Chorus)
Before the world was formed
He was the Chosen Lamb,
The only Son of God
Who made himself the Son of Man.
He is the righteous One who died that sinful man might live.
He is I Am, and I am His.
(Break)
And he had no beginning
He'll have no end
Time and creation owe all to Him.
Yet in limitless mercy he condescends
To Claim me a child and to call me friend
And Cleanse my sin
With the power of his returning
He will split the eastern sky,
And His enemies before him will be scattered.
Ev'ry eye will see his glory
And then ev'ry heart will know
He is Jesus the Messiah, He is Lord.
(Chorus)
Before the world was formed
He was the Chosen Lamb,
The only Son of God
Who made himself the Son of Man.
He is the Living One who died, but now forever lives.
He is I Am, and I am His.
