Before there was time   There were visions in Your mind   There was death in the fall of mankind   But there was life in salvation's design      Before there were days   There were nights I could not see Your face   But the night couldn't keep me from grace   When You came and took my place      So I cry, Holy, only begotten Son of God, Ancient of Days   I cry, Holy, only begotten Son of God and sing the praises   Of the One who saved me and the promises He made      Before there was time   You counted the hairs on my head   You knew all the words that I've said   And purchased me back from the dead      And before I was made   You searched me and knew my ways   You numbered all of my days   And You set forth the steps I would take      So I cry, Holy, only begotten Son of God, Ancient of Days   I cry, Holy, only begotten Son of God and sing the praises   Of the One who saved me, and the promises He made      You saved me, You raised me   You saved me, You pulled me from the grave      So I cry, Holy, only begotten Son of God, Ancient of Days   I cry, Holy, only begotten Son of God and sing the praises   I cry, Holy, only begotten Son of God, Ancient of Days   I cry, Holy, only begotten Son of God and sing the praises      Of the One who saved me   And the promises He made   Before there was time
