Chorus
This is the Gospel of the Truth and the Way
Through Jesus our Savior, our sins have been paid
It’s not for a season His free gift sustains
God’s with us forever and forever He reigns
V1
God, The Father, sent His Son
To save our souls on Calvary
It’s all God’s perfect plan. “Behold the Lamb!”
Once and for all, the perfect Christ was sacrificed
Let’s raise our voices up and praise the Lord!
Chorus
V2
Every morning when I wake
I think about His love for me
And pray that I will serve Him faithfully
The brutal nails and spear could not hold Him here
So, let’s raise our hands up high and praise the Lord! X2
COUNTER LYRICS - BGV
Spread the good news everywhere
A sweet aroma fills the air
The precious Lamb of God was slain
Just to rise and live again
