In the darkness, we were waiting
Without hope, without light
Till from heaven, You came running
There was mercy in Your eyes
To fulfill the law and prophets
To a virgin came the word
From a throne of endless glory
To a cradle in the dirt
Praise the Father, praise the Son
Praise the Spirit, three in one
God of glory, Majesty
Praise forever to the King of Kings
To reveal the kingdom coming
And to reconcile the
To redeem the whole creation
You did not despise the cross
For even in your suffering
You saw to the other side
Knowing this was our salvation
Jesus for our sake you died
And the morning that You rose
All of heaven held its breath
Till that stone was moved for good
For the Lamb had conquered death
And the dead rose from their tombs
And the angels stood in awe
For the souls of all who'd come
To the Father are restored
And the church of Christ was born
Then the Spirit lit the flame
Now this gospel truth of old
Shall not kneel, shall not faint
By His blood and in His name
In His freedom I am free
For the love of Jesus Christ
Who has resurrected me
How great the chasm that lay between us
How high the mountain I could not climb
In desperation I turned to heaven
And spoke Your name into the night
Then through the darkness Your loving kindness
Tore through the shadows of my soul
The work is finished the end is written
Jesus Christ my Living Hope
Who could imagine so great a mercy
What heart could fathom such boundless grace
The God of ages stepped down from glory
To wear my sin and bear my shame
The cross has spoken I am forgiven
The King of Kings calls me His own
Beautiful Savior I’m Yours forever
Jesus Christ my Living Hope
Hallelujah praise the One who set me free
Hallelujah death has lost its grip on me
You have broken every chain there’s salvation in Your Name
Jesus Christ my Living Hope
Then came the morning that sealed the promise
Your buried body began to breathe
Out of the silence the roaring Lion
Declared the grave has no claim on me
Then came the morning that sealed the promise
Your buried body began to breathe
Out of the silence the roaring Lion
Declared the grave has no claim on me
Jesus Yours is the victory
Hallelujah praise the One who set me free
Hallelujah death has lost its grip on me
You have broken every chain there’s salvation in Your Name
Jesus Christ my Living Hope
Jesus Christ my Living Hope
God You are my Living Hope
What can wash away my sin?
Nothing but the blood of Je–sus
What can make me whole again?
Nothing but the blood of Je–sus
Oh, precious is the flow
That makes me white as snow
No other fount I know
Nothing but the blood of Je–sus
Oh, the blood of Jesus
Oh, the blood of Jesus
Oh, the blood of Je–sus
It washes white as snow
Before I spoke a word, You were singing over me
You have been so, so good to me
Before I took a breath, You breathed Your life in me
You have been so, so kind to me
Oh, the overwhelming, never-ending
Reckless love of God
Oh, it chases me down, fights 'til I'm found
Leaves the ninety-nine
I couldn't earn it, and I don't deserve it
Still, You give Yourself away
Oh, the overwhelming, never-ending
Reckless love of God
When I was Your foe, still Your love fought for me
You have been so, so good to me
When I felt no worth, You paid it all for me
You have been so, so kind to me
There's no shadow You won't light up
Mountain You won't climb up coming after me
There's no wall You won't kick down
Lie You won't tear down coming after me
The head that once was crowned with thorns
Is crowned with glory now
The Savior knelt to wash our feet
Now at his feet we bow
The one who wore our sin and shame
Now robed in majesty
The radiance of perfect love
Now shines for all to see
Your name, your name is victory
All praise will rise to Christ our king
The fear that held us now gives way
To him who is our peace
His final breath upon the cross
Is now alive in me
By your spirit I will rise from the ashes of defeat
The resurrected king is resurrecting me
In your name I come alive to declare your victory
The resurrected king is resurrecting me
The tomb where soldiers watched in vain
Was borrowed for three days
His body there would not remain
Our God has robbed the grave
Our God has robbed the grave
Peace, bring it all to peace
The storms surrounding me
Let it break at Your name
Still, call the sea to still
The rage in me to still
Every wave at Your name
Jesus, Jesus, You make the darkness tremble
Jesus, Jesus, You silence fear
Jesus, Jesus, You make the darkness tremble
Jesus, Jesus,
Breathe, call these bones to live
Call these lungs to sing
Once again, I will praise
Your name is a light that the shadows can't deny
Your name cannot be overcome
Your name is alive forever lifted high
Your name cannot be overcome
