CHORUS We sing Your mercies We sing Your endless praises We sing Your everlasting love We sing Your mercies We sing Your endless praises Sovereign One who died Sovereign One who died for us VERSE 1 Should He who made the stars Be hung upon a tree And should the hands that healed Be driven through for me? Should He who gave us bread Be made to swallow gall? Should He who gave us breath and life Be slaughtered for us all? VERSE 2 Should He who is the light Be cast into the dark? And should the Lord of love Be pierced through His own heart? Should He who called us friends Be deserted by us all Should He who lived a sinless life Be punished for our fall?

You Are Lord 05:00
VERSE 1 Once we were separated Divided by walls of sin Hating and being hated Ruled by our pride within Then You took upon Yourself The guilt of every heart And though we were blind now we can see There is no other Savior but You And You’ve brought us together CHORUS You are Lord of every nation You are Lord of every tribe and race And by Your blood we’ve received salvation So that we can sing together and worship You as one And glorify Your name until You come VERSE 2 Different names and faces Each one by Your design Gathered from every nation Taken from every time To be a kingdom of Your own To serve You without end And to reflect Your perfect light To all who live in darkness and pain So the whole world might know that Credits: Words and music by Bob Kauflin © 1992 Sovereign Grace Praise (BMI)
