Great Among The Nations |
|
Isaiah saw that it would come |
Beginning from Jerusalem |
In the last days to ev’ry tongue |
To ev’ry nation |
And Daniel saw through prophet’s eyes |
A kingdom that would never die |
A mountain that would fill the earth |
A rock that would endure |
|
That would be great among the nations |
A fire from a spark |
So great among the nations |
Bringing sunlight to the dark |
And offering salvation |
To a world of broken hearts |
Among the nations there would be |
A movement that would change eternity |
|
The scholars looked for Him in vain |
Their earthly king he never came |
Instead a carpenter would start |
A kingdom of the heart |
And beaten bruised He stretched His hands |
As God became a dying man |
And King on cross was sacrificed |
For the church His bride |
|
And now this kingdom is our own |
We bow before His heav’nly throne |
And pledge our lives to His great cause |
To seek and save the lost |
And ev’rywhere in ev’ry word |
We share with all who have not heard |
About the truth that sets men free |
Which prophets longed to see |
