Couplet 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 among men
My example is He

Couplet 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

Pré-Refrain

The hands that healed nations
Stretched out on a tree
And took the nails for me

Refrain

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
Oh glorious day
Oh glorious day

Couplet 3

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

Pré-Refrain 2

Death could not hold Him
The grave could not keep Him
From rising again

Refrain

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
Oh glorious day
Oh glorious day

Pont

One day the trumpet
Will sound for His coming
One day the skies
With His glories will shine
Wonderful day
My Beloved One bringing
My Savior Jesus is mine

Refrain

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
Oh glorious day
Oh glorious day
