Hope of the Ages Songtext
von Sovereign Grace Music

The prophets had glimpsed, and the angels had watched with awe
The unfolding plans of our faithful redeeming God
What they longed for, we have seen
What was promised, we believe

Hope of the Ages, Isaiah′s great light
Abraham's offspring, blessing of Jacob, Judah′s might
Hope of the Ages, David's true Son
Desire of nations, promised salvation, God with us

The vision once clouded has now to our hearts appeared
Once shrouded in mystery, redemption has been made clear
Our Messiah now has come
Word made Flesh, the saving One


Hope of the Ages, Isaiah's great light
Abraham′s offspring, blessing of Jacob, Judah′s might
Hope of the Ages, David's true Son
Desire of nations, promised salvation, God with us

All hail the One now revealed to the world
In Bethlehem, born to a young virgin girl
Lamb without blemish yet cruelly betrayed
Who cried, "It is finished," and rose from the grave
The Father′s great gift and the proof of His love
Hope of the Ages, our God here with us

Hope of the Ages, Isaiah's great light
Abraham′s offspring, blessing of Jacob, Judah's might
Hope of the Ages, David′s true Son
Desire of nations, promised salvation, God with us

Desire of nations, promised salvation, God with us
