You breathed Your breath in us

That we might come to know

That we might sing Your praise, forever

You gave us lips to sing

You gave us feet to bring

An offering of joy, to Your throne

Remember me

In light of Your mercy

Remember me

In light of Your love

You bore a crown of thorns

That we might know Your grace

That we might see Your face, on that day

My darkness turned to light

The sinless sacrificed

The ransomed now draw nigh, in faith

Remember me

In light of Your mercy

Remember me

In light of Your love

You abandoned heaven’s lights

You gave the gift of life

You offered Yourself to all, who believe

Now the angels join in song

As the saints come marching home

A nation has been formed

We are sons and daughters of the King

This crooked universe

Has only grown worse

As life descends

And truth it bends

I can’t take any more

I stumble out the door

Only to return

And face a draining sea

A great wind blows

It swallows our homes

The strong take a stand

Crowns tossed into the sand

Our light once shone

The darkness to disown

We’ll march seven times

Conquer riddles and rhymes

Daddy dear sat me on his knee

And he told me this story

About a big oak tree

That stands tall and wide

It’s roots burrow deep

It dwells by the creek

It brings forth fruit and seed

It’s leaves never wither nor fade

So I sing this ode

To the big oak tree

Let us pay our dues

To the big oak tree
