Lyrics for "From Eternity Past"

In the dark

You knew me

Before I was cast

You called me

Your thoughts of me

Are even more, than the sands of the sea

The sands of the sea

Chorus

From eternity past

You planned me

From darkness to light

From blindness to sight

From eternity past

You chose me

I was not hidden from You

I was not hidden from You

In the dark

You loved me

You saved me

Every breath

I need You

Before I could see

You came for me

Your redeeming love

Is too wonderful, too wondrous for me

Like the sands of the sea

Search me, O God, and know my heart

Try me and know my thoughts

And see if there be any grievous way in me,

and lead me in the way

Lead me in the way

Everlasting, everlasting, everlasting
