One day near the city of Jerusalem/ a father sadly looked into the eyes of his children/
He said the time for sacrifice has come/ our sins must be covered, our wrongs must be atoned/
The younger one said I don't understand/ why our sins can't be forgiven without the killing of my lamb/ The father took the young child by the hand and said/
There will come a day, when the lion out of Judah, will become the lamb of God and take our sins away/ There will come a day, no more sacrifices needed, perfect grace will be completed/
Oh my child there will come a day.
One day in the garden of Gethsemane, Jesus prayed if it be Thy will, let this cup pass from me/
He knew the plan of God would have to be and in just a few short hours, He would die on Calvary/ His humanity cried, 'Lord another way'/ His divinity rose up and said, 'This price I'll have to pay'/ And just before the father turned away, he said.
There will come a day, your defeat will turn to victory, for the cross that you carry bears the weight of all the world/ There will come a day, when the blood stains in your hands, declare the hope of every man, oh my child, there will come a day.
Each day that we live among sins awful curse/ The evidence of darkness seems to only get much worse/ We cry to God in anguish, 'Lord how long will You allow this evil world to just go on and on'/ But all of us who made this God our choice/ Can listen in our spirit and we can hear His voice/ He calls our down cast souls to rise, Rejoice!!! Rejoice!!, He says...
There will come a day that reveals the King of glory/ And the mighty Name of Jesus will forever be proclaimed/ There will come a day, no more night, no sin, no sorrow/ No more longing for tomorrow, oh my child, there will come a day...
No more night, no sin, no sorrow/ No more longing for tomorrow, oh my child, there will come a day.
