It was a long time ago
There was a man I've come to know
He was born from God's own hand
To die for all those who stand
His love is yet unfailing
His grace ever prevailing
He promises eternity
All you have to do is believe
[Chorus:]
How could it be that the Lord could set His people free
2000 years ago
Broken promises is all you see
Never felt the presence of He
What you live is the world around
Always lost and never found
The heart of yours that's grown cold
He'll turn around and make it bold
And what you think He'd never do
Can now be done and be renewed
There is no way to heaven
Except through the father above
There is no way to the father
Except through the Son of love
