1. One day when heaven was filled with His praises,
  One day when sin was black as could be,
  Jesus came forth to be born of a virgin��
  Dwelt among men, my example is He!
(Chorus:)
  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.
3. One day they left Him alone in the garden,
  One day He rested, from suffering free;
  Angels came down o'er His tomb to keep vigil;
  Hope of the hopeless, my Savior is He.
(Chorus:)
  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!
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.
5. One day the trumpet will sound for His coming,
  One day the skies with His glory will shine;
  Wonderful day, my beloved ones bringing;
  Glorious Savior, this Jesus is mine!
(Chorus:)
  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!
