gentle savior
he suffered long
for the sins of man
though he did no wrong
compassionate king
with tender eyes
who came for his people
his bride, his prize
foretold long ago
by prophets of old
he rescued us from
the darkness and cold
he came to die
he came to save
and like the spring he’ll come back
yes he’ll come like the rain
so lift your head
and open your eyes
for the king is returning
salvation is nigh
