Lyrics
A Dream Come True
Verse 1 (John):
What manner of Man is this
Even the wind and the sea obey Him.
What manner of Man is this
Who heals the sick and raised the dead.
Verse 2 (John):
Could this be the Son Of God
Sent down from the Father?
Foretold in days of old
To take away our sins.
Chorus:
It will be a dream come true to worship You till the end.
It is my desire to give You praise, O Ancient of Days.
Verse 3 (Richard):
O Merciful God, You are seated on high; You we glorify.
O Jesus Christ, our hope and joy; Your name we magnify.
Chorus:
It will be a dream come true to worship You till the end.
It is my desire to give You praise, O Ancient of Days.
Bridge (Richard):
At the mention of Your name, they tremble; there's power in Your name.
You are the healer and Saviour, Lord; only You deserve praise. (2x)
Section B (John):
When will I wake out of this sleep, for this is not a dream.
When will I wake and see Your face, and bow down at Your feet.
For You have called me to new life and leave my evil ways.
Oh Lord I turn and give my heart to You O God I pray.
Section C (John):
Oh Lord Jesus save me, I call on You to save me.
Only You can save me, come in Lord Jesus save me, save me.
Section D (John):
For You have called me to new life and leave my evil ways.
Oh Lord I turn and give my heart to You O God I pray.
Section E (John):
Oh Lord Jesus save me, I call on You to save me.
Only You can save me, Come in Lord Jesus save me, save me.
I Call on Your Name.
