Lyrics
There was a time before the past, when things to come were clearly cast.
On Earth below and Stars above,
Of what He'd do - Mercy - Love
Of what He then made true -
What is that to you?
2.
How much time does man require,
To see the things that made their hour?
What else can His arm reveal?
His story told that then came real.
Of sacrifice He'd do -
What is that to you?
What will make us feel -
The weight of history real?
With eyes to see and heart to feel.
Open our eyes - all You provide -
All You gave to know the way
And still we choose to hide!
3.
The Word to me, this plaintive song - The Truth upon this world so long
Before this world was formed in space He laid His plan - eternal grace
His Word made to come true -
With eyes to see the cross
With heart to feel the cost
With faith not to be lost
4.
We find the lines before they passed Isaiah now, history fast
Of pains for us He'd do.
There is not found another way
That gave so much that is to say.
He gave His all for you
He gave His all its true -
What is that to you?
