Текст песни
Moses recorded for us the stories of old
Among those tales was the greatest ever told
And though it might seem like God was being mean
He used this as an example of things unforeseen
Using the scriptures to foreshadow His plan
To sacrifice His only Begotten, the Son of Man
The only man ever sinless from birth
Was slain before the foundation of earth
God had already counted the cost of His plan
Sacrificing His only Son to redeem man
Abraham was a just and fair man
He walked and talked with the iron
God tested his faith to the very end
Counting it as righteousness to a friend
God asked him to sacrifice his only son
Yet God was showing us what had to be done
The only man ever sinless from birth
Was slain before the foundation of earth
God had already counted the cost of His plan
Sacrificing His only Son to redeem man - yeah
He told us the end from the beginning
Because of mankind who were sinning
Our sins turned us away to hide from His face
Yet He saved us out of His abundant grace
Showing us mercy deeper than the sea
His only Son dying for you and for me
The only man ever sinless from birth
Was slain before the foundation of earth
God had already counted the cost of His plan
Sacrificing His only Son to redeem man
And just like His faithful friend Abraham
He gave up His only Son, the great I Am
The only man ever sinless from birth
Was slain before the foundation of earth
God had already counted the cost of His plan
Sacrificing His only Son to redeem man - to redeem man
And just like His faithful friend Abraham
He gave up His only Son, the great I Am
