Oh, the mercy our God has shown
To those who sit in death's shadow
The sun on high pierced the night
Born was the cornerstone
Unto us a son is given, unto us a child is born

He who is mighty has done a great thing
Taken on flesh, conquered death's sting
Shattered the darkness and lifted our shame
Holy is his name

Oh, the freedom our savior won
The yoke of sin has been broken
Once a slave, now by grace
No more condemnation

Now my soul magnifies the lord
I rejoice in the God who saves
I will trust his unfailing love
I will sing his praises all my days
