Oh praise the God who answers me Who hears me when I pray Whose love came down to find the one The world had cast away Who welcomed this abandoned child Brought glory from disgrace Who leads me to a coming dawn When I will see his face When I will see his face Let my heart and soul awake Rejoice, for this is the day That only God can make The darkness now is overcome The victory unfurled Salvation like the rising sun Is conquering my world Once captive to the bonds of sin A captive now no more Delivered from the death within My future is secured Let my heart and soul awake Rejoice, for this is the day That only God can make This is the day the Lord has made (This is the day the Lord has made) I will rejoice and be glad in it (I will rejoice and be glad in it) Let my heart and soul awake Rejoice, for this is the day That only God can make
