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 couldn't keep me from grace   When You came and took my place      Chorus      So I cry holy only begotten Son of God (echo God)   Ancient of days   I cry holy only begotten Son of God (echo 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've 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 saved me; You pulled me from the grave      Chorus 2x      So I cry holy only begotten Son of God   Ancient of days   I cry 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
