Verse 1 There is no condemnation now, For those in Christ, the Judge came down. The Law was weak through flesh and sin, So God sent Jesus, took wrath in. The Spirit breathes these dead bones life, Cuts through the dark like holy light. Mind on the flesh is death and chains, But Christ has broken every stain. If God is for us, who can stand? No ruler, power, throne, or man. Creation groans for glory’s dawn, Waiting for sons to finally come. We suffer now, but not in vain, Future glory outweighs the pain. Predestined, called, justified— And one day we’ll be glorified. Chorus According to His purpose, Chosen before birth. Mercy from the heavens, Not according to worth. Nothing can divide us, No darkness, death, or sword. We are more than conquerors Through Jesus Christ our Lord. Verse 2 Who are you, man, to answer back? The Potter forms from holy wrath. Jacob loved before his birth, Not by works or human worth. Mercy falls where mercy goes, Like rivers only God controls. Pharaoh rose so God could show His power to the nations bold. Not all Israel truly are, Children born of promise-stars. Grace alone has paved the road, Faith alone receives the hope. Gentiles called from every land, Broken hearts held in His hands. Christ the stone they stumbled on, Yet He became salvation’s song. Chorus According to His purpose, Chosen before birth. Mercy from the heavens, Not according to worth. Nothing can divide us, No darkness, death, or sword. We are more than conquerors Through Jesus Christ our Lord. Bridge Neither angels nor demons, Neither present nor end, Neither height nor the deep Can cause His covenant to bend From eternity past To eternity bright, Every saint held secure By the sovereign Christ. Breakdown / Rap Section Foreknown—called—justified—raised, Every step ordained in grace. Not by human will or race, But mercy flowing from His face. Vessels shaped by sovereign hands, History bends to His commands. Cross of Christ the only boast, Saved by Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. Final Chorus According to His purpose, Chosen before birth. Mercy from the heavens, Not according to worth. Nothing can divide us, No darkness, death, or sword. We are more than conquerors Through Jesus Christ our Lord. Outro Oh the depth of holy wisdom, Unsearchable His ways. From Him and through Him and to Him Be glory endless days.
