v.1
Oh holy God
That you would rend the heavens
Oh that you would come down

That mountains might tremble
At your presence, Lord
And nations might quake at your name

v.2
We are your people
We have forgotten you
We have not called upon your name

And even our “good” deeds
Are like filthy garments, Lord
We are unclean before your face

(chorus)
No ear has heard
No eye has seen
A holy God like you

From days of old
Through eternity
There is none beside You
Lord we wait for You

v.3
You opened the heavens
Over Bethlehem, Lord
And as a baby you came down

You lived among us,
You healed and taught us
Your enemies hated your name

v.4
You died on the cross Lord
And how the mountains trembled
The nations crucified their king

Then in the temple
The curtain was torn asunder
And my bloody robes became as white

(final)
Oh holy God
That you did rend the heavens
Oh that you did come down
