Oh how glorious the day, the day when the Savior was born of a virgin in a manger,
Think about that, the King of the universe, the God of heaven,
There was no robbery for Him to be counted equal to God,
Rather He chose to come to this world and be born of a virgin in a stable with beasts
Now I want to take you to a place even more glorious
a day more beautiful than that in the manger.
I want to take you to the day that all heaven rejoiced...
My Savior was betrayed and taken prisoner,
despised and rejected my Savior was hung between earth and heaven on a cross
I want to take you to a place called Calvary
Here my Savior died and bled for me!
Here my Lord was taken and nailed to a cross
pierced feet, pierced hands, blood stained a righteous man
the self-righteous pharisees wag their fingers,
soldiers cast lots for garments that were worn by a man who's shoes prophets were unfit to touch
A man cries out, "remember me when you come into your kingdom"
everything stops, suddenly its quiet...
what will He say? This man who is the very Son of God?
He bids this thief entry to paradise; and with that thief I can go in
I want to take you to a place where living water flows from the side of the Savior
evidence of the fact that man could not kill Jesus, He died of a broken heart
His mighty "it is finished" brought cheers in heaven, and fear to the heart of the devil
This man of Calvary was taken down, dead,
it looked as though He was defeated
but could our eyes be opened this would have been the moment of victory
the Son of man conquered death!
Three days later He returned from the grave and justified the faithful and repentant ones
Now my mighty liberator lives, forever at the side of the Most High
in the most holy place He acts for us,
the day of judgement is here and the love of God is for all of His children revealed!
Blessing and honor and glory to the Lamb!
let us sing a new song to the Holy One who sits on the throne of judgment
all because He gave heaven cause to rejoice
