A Better Story

Oh lowly sinner, oh suffering saint
Deceived and doubting, weary and faint
There is a truth that will set you free
A better story, a lasting peace
Of news which heaven above declares
Of hope and blessing beyond compare
That whosoever shall believe, should have eternal life
Of Jesus, son of God and mighty Christ

Once we were captive, by sin enslaved
Living in darkness, from God estranged
But then the saviour in power came
In flesh to save us, oh praise His name!
Sing hallelujah! The Lamb was slain
We stand forgiven and one with God again
He tore the curtain and removed the punishment of sin
Now we are clothed in Jesus' righteousness

Once we were helpless when facing death
Without a hope past our final breath
But on the third day, how can it be?
The Christ is risen that so would we!
Sing hallelujah, and be not afraid
For He is holding the keys to death and grave
Our song eternal, our Shepherd led us all the way
Through the valley to eternity!

Now to the Father and to the Word
And to the Spirit, let praise be heard
Now and forever, we shall belong
To Him who saved us, this is our song
Sing hallelujah! Come Lord Jesus come
Gracious King, we long for your return!
For the day when you will make the earth and heavens new
Oh, what a hope your church has found in you
A better story, firm, secure and true
