[Verse 1] In ages past, before the earth was made, By God's sovereign will His eternal plan was laid, He chose His own, a tapestry so grand, Not by our merit, but by His own command. From dust we came, a fragile, fallen race, Deserving wrath, running from God’s grace, But love divine, a purpose deep and true, Ordained a saving grace, for me and for you. [Chorus] Oh, sovereign truth, a cornerstone of light, Against pride-filled shadows, dark as night. Predestined love, a covenant so sure, The elect shall stand, forever to endure. No fickle will, no power to accept, God's mighty grace, a promise to be kept, His glory shines, in every soul He'll claim, Forever praising His everlasting name. [Verse 2] Boastful winds, they whisper tempting lies, Of human choice, reflected in their eyes. They say God calls, but man can turn away, A conditional love, at the close of the day. But Scripture’s clear, proclaims His firm decree, The efficacious call, sets captives free, He grants the faith, the repentance, and the plea, Not of our own, but granted, pure and free. [Bridge] Definite atonement, for the chosen ones, The crimson flow, salvation through the Son, He died to save, His sheep He knows by name, He came down, He took away their shame. Irresistible grace, it pulls us to the fold, A story of redemption, forever told, Perseverance sure, they shall never fall, Kept by His power, drawn to His call. [Chorus] Oh, sovereign truth, a cornerstone of light, Against pride-filled shadows, dark as night. Predestined love, a covenant so sure, The elect shall stand, forever to endure. No fickle will, no power to accept, God's mighty grace, a promise to be kept, His glory shines, in every soul He'll claim, Forever praising His everlasting name. [Outro] So let us bow, before His sovereign throne, The architect of all, He calls us His own, His perfect plan, His wisdom shining bright, By grace alone made perfect in His sight.
