Ascend The Hill So Good to Us song lyrics

When the darkness crept and overshadowed the sun

We were buried in the sickness and sin had begun

We were thirsty

We were tired

But God said, 'come' and despite

our condition

Light now shines where the dark had convinced us

that no man tastes and no man sees

Instead of repaying us what we deserve, or according to our

sin and the wrath that we've earned,

He lifted it and put it on his Son

So down came Love, the right hand of God

the man called Christ,

and He swallowed it up

that all men taste and see:

The Lord is gracious, slow to anger,

rich in love

He's good, so good to us

If my righteousness is filthy rags then

Your's is a shield about my chest

and when Your righteous cry You hear

And when Your voice breaks through the noice and confusion

responding to my lowly position

I hear it and I feel You and I know that:

(o taste and see that the Lord is good, His mercies endure forever)
