Smith Craig - Ancient Of Days lyrics

rate me

Craig Smith

Chosen to serve as the sacrifice lamb

The binder of all the earths wounds

Called the Deliverer, Chief Cornerstone

Slain and then buried, but He rose from the tomb

Chorus

He is the Ancient of days

Giver of freedom with the price that He paid

He is the Ancient of days

Exposing the enemy's great masquerade

Giver of life, His is the Ancient of days

Courageous Redeemer, who's life giving blood

Is the ransom for wayward man's soul

Covenant Messenger, Heir of all things

The Shepherd and Guardian, Guardian of souls

Chorus

Warrior of holiness, Messiah and King

Ruler of Israel, Salvation's great Captain

Hope for all man

One day every tongue will say the Lord is He

Chorus

"In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word

Was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things came into being by

Him, and apart from Him nothing came into being that has come into being.

In Him was life and the life was the light of men. The light shines in the

Darkness and the darkness did not overpower it." John 1:1-5

"...conduct yourselves in fear during the time of your stay upon the

Earth knowing that you were not ransomed with perishable things like

Silver or gold from your futile way of life inherited from your

Forefathers, but with the precious blood, as of a lamb unblemished and

Spotless, the blood of Christ." I Peter 1:17-19

It's an awesome thought to realize that Jesus, the man born of a virgin

And laid in a hay stable, created the universe with God the Father. They

Spoke a word and the stars and planets were flung into existence. They

Spoke another word and living creatures were formed, and yet another

Word and man's flesh was formed. They used their very breath and

Breathed life into the nostrils of this man they had created. They gave

This man the ability to decide, a choice to obey his Creator or to

Disobey Him. He disobeyed. God, the Ancient of Days, loved this man so

Much, He gave His only Son, His co-creator, to be born in a manger, then

Be put to death by this man. God's Son, His Lamb, was the ransom for this

Man.--Bill Stuckey
