The prophets saw in ages past Light in the distant dawn The King is bound in agony Will rise to life again And in His name a saving word Release from every stain And in the darkness we have heard This is God's only plan This is God's only plan The Son of God now in the flesh He seeks to save the lost A King who left His majesty Behind to set us free And in His name a saving word Release from every stain And in the darkness we have heard This is God's only plan ♪ And oh, for a thousand tongues to sing My great redeemer's praises And oh, for a thousand tongues to sing My great redeemer's praises ♪ His Spirit gives us words to speak Jesus Christ is Lord And as He breaks the hardest heart He's worshipped and adored And in His name a saving word Release from every stain And in the darkness we have heard This is God's only plan And oh, for a thousand tongues to sing My great redeemer's praises And oh, for a thousand tongues to sing My great redeemer's praises And oh, for a thousand tongues to sing My great redeemer's praises And oh, for a thousand tongues to sing My great redeemer's praises
