You’re the centre of the story, beginning and the end
Son of God, the hope of glory, in You all life depends
You’ve been walking through the ages certain of the day
When You entered into weakness perfect love became
There is beauty in the place our worlds collide
There is power in the cross Your sacrifice
Complete in adoration my soul delights
You’ve opened up the way
You’ve opened up the way
You’re the name that’s never shaken as kingdoms rise and fall
You’re the hope in me awakened, steadfast through it all
You’re the power and the peace through all eternity
You’re The King of righteousness, and now You live in me
Hallelujah now the dead in me is raised
Hallelujah I am free of all my shame
Hallelujah Jesus worthy of all praise
You’ve opened up the way
