Verse 1

Oh Lord my God
I'm reaching out
To feel the holy
Fire somehow
I've fallen and
It's darker now
I need Your light
To fill me

Verse 2

I've heard of grace
That wakens souls
A holy light
That warms the cold
A flame still burning
Now from old
Lord would You burn
Within me

Chorus

This fire
Of a thousand years
This Christ
Who is ever near
Oh wake the morning
Sun to see
That the Savior
Evermore will be
Jesus Son of Majesty

Verse 3

What history is more than Yours
The story made of miracles
A mystery yet fully known
That You lived to love the lowly

Verse 4

You came to Earth a humble man
Eternal One now here within
And in Your heart the greater plan
Your will to serve the Father's

Chorus

This fire
Of a thousand years
This Christ
Who is ever near
Oh wake the morning
Sun to see
That the Savior
Evermore will be
Jesus Son of Majesty

Verse 5

You lived a life of hiddenness
Your ministry a world to bless
We scorned Your gift
You took our debt
And You paid it ever willingly

Verse 6

Upon the hill of Calvary
You changed the course of history
The veil was torn the sinner freed
And Your Spirit now alive in me

Chorus

This fire
Of a thousand years
This Christ
Who is ever near
Oh wake the morning
Sun to see
That the Savior
Evermore will be
Jesus Son of Majesty

Verse 7

You gave us life
By dying here
You rose and now
Your Kingdom's here
You'll rescue those
You hold so dear
By the promise
You will finish

Verse 8

And as You sit
Enthroned on high
You hold the world
Within Your sight
You see how it
Will come to life
Where the end is
The beginning
