Lyrics
Verse 1
Christ, the true and better Adam, Son of God and Son of man
Who, when tempted in the garden, never yielded, never sinned
He Who makes the many righteous, brings us back to life again
Dying, He reversed the curse, then rising, crushed the serpent's head
Verse 2
Christ, the true and better Isaac humble son of sacrifice
Who would climb the fearful mountain, there to offer up his life
Laid with faith upon the altar Father's joy and only son
There salvation was provided oh, what full and boundless love
Chorus
Amen, amen from beginning to end
Christ the story His the glory alleluia, amen
Verse 3
Christ, the true and better Moses, called to lead a people home
Standing bold to earthly powers, God's great glory to be known
With His arms stretched wide to heaven, see the waters part in two
See the veil is torn forever, cleansed with blood we pass now through
Verse 4
Christ, the true and better David lowly shepherd, mighty King
He the champion in the battle, where, o death, is now thy sting
In our place He bled and conquered, crown Him Lord of Majesty
He shall be the throne forever we shall e're His people be
