A Thousand Generations

I left a piece of my heart at the cross
You carried it with You to Heaven above
All day and night my soul eagerly waits
To see Heaven come and Your Kingdom

There wasn’t space for my sin and my shame
But that didn’t stop You from calling my name
And waking me up from this heartbroken place
With songs of Your freedom and notes of Your grace

Stars and skylines
Can’t outshine Your glory
Time can pass by
It won’t outlast Your reign
We join the praises of a thousand generations
Hallelujah, God
I can’t help but sing again

See now the earth how it can’t help itself
Trading Your treasures for counterfeit wealth
Hear now Your church how She eagerly waits
Singing come now Lord Jesus
Restore what You’ve made
Movements fade away
Your Kingdom won’t
You’re on the throne
And now I know
Your love can change the world
You’re in control
You won’t let go
