1. One day when heaven was filled with His praises,
One day when sin was as black as could be,
Jesus came forth to be born of a virgin—
Dwelt amongst men, my example is He!
(Chorus) Living, He loved me; dying He saved me;
Buried He carried my sins far away,
Rising He justified freely forever;
One day He’s coming—O glorious day.
2. One day they led Him up Calvary’s mountain,
One day they nailed Him to die on a tree;
Suffering anguish, despised and rejected;
Bearing our sins, my Redeemer is He!
3. One day they left Him alone in the garden,
One day He rested, from suffering free;
Angels came down O’er His tomb to keep vigil;
Hope of the hopeless, my Savior is He!
4. One day the grave could conceal Him no longer,
One day the stone rolled away from the door;
Then He arose, over death He had conquered;
Now is ascended, my Lord evermore!
5. One day the trumpet will sound for His coming,
One day the skies with His glory will shine;
Wonderful day, my beloved ones bringing;
Glorious Savior, this Jesus is mine!
