 1.  One day when heaven was filled with His praises,
     One day when sin was as black as could be,
     Jesus came forth to be born of a virgin,
     Dwelt among men, my Example is He!

     Refrain:
     Living, He loved me; dying, He saved me;
     Buried He carried my sins far away;
     Rising, He justified freely forever;
     One day He's coming - O glorious day!

  2. One day they led Him up Calvary's mountain,
     One day they nailed Him to die on the tree;
     Suffering anguish, despised and rejected:
     Bearing our sins, my Redeemer is He!

     Refrain

 3.  One day they left Him alone in the garden,
     One day He rested, from suffering free;
     Angels came down over His tomb to keep vigil;
     Hope of the hopeless, my Savior is He!

     Refrain

 4.  One day the grave could conceal Him no longer,
     One day the stone rolled away from the door;
     Then He arose, over death He had conquered;
     Now is ascended, my Lord evermore!

     Refrain

 5.  One day the trumpet will sound for His coming,
     One day the skies with His glories will shine;
     Wonderful day, my beloved One bringing;
     Glorious Savior, this Jesus is mine!

     Refrain
