before there was time
there were visions in your mind
there was death in the fall of mankind
but there was life in salvation's design
before there were days
there were nights i could not see your face
but the night could not keep me from grace
when you came and took my place
so i cry holy only begotten son of god
ancient of days
holy only begotten son of god
and sing the praises
of the one who saved me
and the promises He made
before there was time
you counted the hairs on my head
you knew all the words i have said
and you purchased me back from the dead
before i was made
you searched me and knew my ways
you numbered all my days
and you set forth the steps i would take
you saved me, you raised me
you pulled me from the grave
so i cry holy only begotten son of god
ancient of days
holy only begotten son of god
and sing the praises
of the one who saved me
and the promises he made
before there was time
- caedmon's call
