The heavens and earth shall become as one.



I remember the day you came to me,
that way the day I started to see.
And on that day your love was received,
and that same day was when I believed.

From out of the darkness you showed me a light.
And when I was blind you have me sight.
Once I was broken, I felt so lost.
Then you came to me caring the cross.

Everything I have was given by you,
and everything in me you've made brand new.
The day I took you into my heart,
was the day I knew we would never be apart.

And for that Lord I give thanks and pray,
and I'll sing and worship your name all day.
For I know when your work is finally done.
All the heavens and earth shall become as one.
