Before all time began
You had the perfect plan
To make us in the image of Yourself
Although we went astray
You even planned that day
On which You sent Your Son to pay the price
You took on all the sins of the world
And washed them all away
Bearing every curse upon that tree
We all cry holy, holy
Holy is the Lord
The angels cry holy, holy
Holy is the Lord
With all my future plans
They’re safe within Your hands
Far beyond my highest thoughts and prayers
With all my heart and soul
I’ll praise You and extol
The mighty God who holds me in His arms
Holy is the Lord (4x)
