1
One day when haeven 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
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!
2
One day they led Him up Calvary's mountain
One day they nailed Him to die on the tree
Suffering anguish, despised and rejected
Bearing our sins, my Redeemer is He!
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!
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 Saviour is He!
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!
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 has conquered
Now is ascended, my Lord evermore!
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!
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 Saviour, this Jesus is mine!
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!
