You were the Word at the beginning
One with God the Lord Most High
Your hidden glory in creation
Now revealed in You our Christ

You didn’t want heaven without us
So Jesus You brought heaven down
My sin was great Your love was greater
What could separate us now

Death could not hold You
The veil tore before You
You silence the boast of sin and grave

Yours is the kingdom
Yours is the glory
Yours is the Name above all names
