The First.The Last.The Beginning.The End.

[Intro — Deep Spoken Voice] Before the worlds were formed, He was. Above the angels, He reigns. The First. The Last. The Beginning. The End. JESUS CHRIST—ALPHA AND OMEGA! [Verse 1] Before the dawn of time began, Before the breath of mortal man, The Son was reigning, crowned in light, The everlasting Lord of might. The prophets spoke, the priests foretold, The King of kings, the cornerstone. The angels bow, the heavens sing, All things were made by Christ, our King! [Pre-Chorus — Building] Higher than heaven! Greater than kings! Lord over all! The praise creation sings! [Chorus — Massive Metal Anthem] ALPHA! OMEGA! THE FIRST AND THE LAST! THE KING OF GLORY— FOREVER TO LAST! FROM THE THRONE TO THE TOMB! FROM THE LIGHT INTO GLOOM! THE LORD OF ALL CREATION ENTERED DEATH TO SAVE THE DOOMED! JESUS! JESUS! THE BEGINNING AND THE END! JESUS! JESUS! OUR SAVIOR AND OUR FRIEND! [Verse 2] He left the heights no tongue can tell, And entered our dark world of hell. The hands that formed the stars above Were stretched upon a cross of love. The Lord of life was scorned and shamed, The spotless Lamb bore sinners' blame. The One whom angels worshipped there Was crushed beneath our guilt and care. [Pre-Chorus — Heavy and Intense] The Highest descended! The Holy One bled! The Author of life Lay among the dead! [Chorus — Full Power] ALPHA! OMEGA! THE FIRST AND THE LAST! THE KING OF GLORY— FOREVER TO LAST! FROM THE THRONE TO THE TOMB! FROM THE LIGHT INTO GLOOM! THE LORD OF ALL CREATION ENTERED DEATH TO SAVE THE DOOMED! JESUS! JESUS! THE BEGINNING AND THE END! JESUS! JESUS! OUR SAVIOR AND OUR FRIEND! [Verse 3 — Dark, Crushing Rhythm] In Joseph's tomb, the silence lay, The stone concealed the Light of Day. The hands that held the worlds in place Lay still beneath the veil of death. Was this the end? Could death prevail? Could darkness make God's purpose fail? No grave could hold the Sovereign Son! The victory of God was won! [Breakdown — Half-Time, Gang Vocals] THE FIRST! Before all things! THE LAST! Above all kings! THE LIVING! Who conquered the grave! THE SAVIOR! Mighty to save! [Bridge — Soaring, Cinematic] From everlasting glory, To a cross of shame, From the silence of the grave, Rose the everlasting Name! No angel stands above Him! No power can dethrone! The One who made creation Will claim it as His own! Every kingdom fades away, But His dominion shall remain! Age to age, the heavens proclaim: JESUS CHRIST FOREVER REIGNS! [Final Chorus — Maximum Power] ALPHA! OMEGA! THE FIRST AND THE LAST! THE KING OF GLORY— HIS KINGDOM HOLDS FAST! FROM THE THRONE TO THE TOMB! HE CONQUERED DEATH AND DOOM! THE LORD OF ALL CREATION ROSE IN VICTORY FROM THE TOMB! JESUS! JESUS! THE BEGINNING AND THE END! JESUS! JESUS! OUR SAVIOR AND OUR FRIEND! ALPHA! OMEGA! LET ALL CREATION SING! ALPHA! OMEGA! FOREVER LORD AND KING! [Outro — Choir and Spoken Voice] The First. The Last. The Beginning. The End. The One who came in humility Will be revealed in glory. JESUS CHRIST—ALPHA AND OMEGA!
