A DREAM COME TRUE
What manner of Man is this
Even the wind and the sea obey Him
What manner of Man is this
Who heals the sick and raised the dead
Could this be the Son Of God
Sent down from the Father
Foretold in days of old
To take away our sins
It will be a dream come true to worship You till the end.
It is my desire to give You praise, O Ancient of Days.
O Merciful God, You are seated on high; You we glorify.
O Jesus Christ, our hope and joy; Your name we magnify.
It will be a dream come true to worship You till the end.
It is my desire to give You praise, O Ancient of Days.
At the mention of Your name, they tremble; theres power in Your name.
You are the healer and Saviour, Lord; only You deserve praise.
When will I wake out of this sleep
For this is not a dream
When will I wake and see Your face
And bow down at Your feet
For You have called me to new life
And leave my evil ways
Oh Lord I turn and give my heart
To You O God I pray..
Oh Lord Jesus save me
I call on You to save me
Only You can save me
Come in Lord Jesus save me, save me
For You have called me to new life
And leave my evil ways
Oh Lord I turn and give my heart
To You O God I pray..
Oh Lord Jesus save me
I call on You to save me
Only You can save me
Come in Lord Jesus save me
I
Call
On
Your
Name. Jesus
