Verse 1 By the river in a foreign land, A prophet saw a mighty hand. Wheels of fire, glory bright, The Lord appeared in dazzling light. Israel wandered, hearts grown cold, Trading truth for idols made of gold. Ezekiel cried, "Turn back today!" But many chose their own dark way. Pre-Chorus Though judgment came and the city fell, God's holy truth would still prevail. Chorus Then they will know that I am the Lord, Faithful and true to every word. Though kingdoms rise and kingdoms fall, The God of heaven reigns through all. From broken hearts to lives restored, Then they will know that I am the Lord. Verse 2 The temple fell, the people wept, Promises seemed like they had left. But God spoke hope into the night, A coming dawn beyond the fight. A valley filled with lifeless bones, Silent as forgotten stones. Then came the breath, the Spirit's call, And dry bones rose, alive and tall! Pre-Chorus What looked like death was not the end, The Lord would raise His people again. Chorus Then they will know that I am the Lord, Faithful and true to every word. Though kingdoms rise and kingdoms fall, The God of heaven reigns through all. From broken hearts to lives restored, Then they will know that I am the Lord. Bridge Give us a new heart, a spirit made new, Take hearts of stone and make us true. Gather Your people from every shore, Lead us home forevermore. Your glory left because of sin, But by Your grace You'll dwell again. The King is coming, hear the call, His presence will fill it all! Final Chorus Then they will know that I am the Lord, The Alpha and Omega, our reward. Breathing new life where hope was gone, Turning the night into the dawn. Forever faithful, forever adored, Then they will know that I am the Lord. Outro The city's name forevermore, "The Lord Is There"—our hope restored. From exile's tears to heaven's shore, We'll praise the Lord forevermore. Then they will know... that He is the Lord.
