Stuart Townend - Promise of the Ages Lyrics

God's saints of old
Through history told
Of the One who was to come:
A son, a king,
A Lamb to be slain
For the sins of all the world.

He's the Promise of the Ages,
Lifted up to save us,
Jesus Christ, our sacrifice.
He's the Fount of living water,
King and Friend forever,
Bow before
The Promise of the Ages.

In flesh he came,
Yet chose to remain
With the outcast and the poor.
He bled, he died,
Was raised, glorified,
Now he lives forever more!

Lift your hands and sing 'hallelujah'
To the King of all the earth
Raise your voice and sing 'hallelujah'
To the King of all the earth.

How long until
The earth will be filled
With the knowledge of the Lord;
When he shall come,
When nations and tongues
Will be joined in glorious song?
