Lord of the ages, God before time; Jesus, Redeemer, mighty to save; Though lips may bless, and hearts may curse, We are a vapor, You are eternal, You are the love song we'll sing Love everlasting, reigning on high. And lies, like arrows, pierce me, forever, I'll fix my heart on righteousness; Bowing before You, blessing Your I'll look to Him who hears me. name. Chorus Chorus Holy, holy Lord God Almighty, O praise Him, hallelujah, Worthy is the Lamb who was slain; My Delight and my Reward. Highest praises, honor and glory Everlasting, never failing; Be unto Your name, My Redeemer, my God. Be unto Your name. (2) Find rest my soul in God alone Amid the world's temptations. When evil seeks to take a hold, I'll cling to my salvation. Though riches come and riches go, Don't set your heart upon them. The fields of hope in which I sow

Are harvested in heaven.

(3) I'll set my gaze on God alone, And trust in Him completely, With ev'ry day pour out my soul, And He will prove His mercy. Though life is but a fleeting breath, A sigh too brief to measure, My King has crushed the curse of death, And I am His forever.
