These are the days of heaven’s grace
And favour smiling on us
Two thousand years of hope and prayers
Are met in one great chorus
A light has dawned upon us
And will increase
And countless captive souls
Shall be, shall be released

For God has cried children’s tears
And God has felt children’s fears
And now whatever you do
Don’t keep them away
He’s been through it all
As one of us
Needed love like all of us
Been hurt like some of us
Loved life enough
To choose to be a child

To the King eternal
Immortal invisible
The only God
To the King eternal
Immortal invisible
The only God

To the King of Creation
Of saints and of angels
Sovereign of all
Who calls the nations
To feast at his table
Almighty Lord

Honour and glory for ever and ever
To the King eternal
Honour and glory for ever and ever
To the King eternal
