At just the right time
When we were powerless
Christ died for us
God showed he loved us
While we were sinners
Christ died for us
So praise be to God, be to God the Father
Praise be to God, be to God the Father
Praise be to God, be to God the Father
‘Cause in His mercy
He’s given us new birth
Into a living hope, into a living hope
A living hope
A living hope
God showed He loved us
While we were sinners
Christ died for us
So praise be to God, be to God the Father
Praise be to God, be to God the Father
Praise be to God, be to God the Father
‘Cause in His mercy
He’s given us new birth
Into a living hope, into a living hope
In His mercy
He’s given us new birth
Into a living hope, into a living hope
And this hope will not put us to shame
It will not put us to shame
And this hope will not perish or fade
It will not perish or fade
And this hope will not put us to shame
It will not put us to shame
And this hope will not perish or fade
It will not perish or fade
Praise be to God, be to God the Father
Praise be to God, be to God the Father
Praise be to God, be to God the Father
‘Cause in His mercy
He’s given us new birth
Into a living hope, into a living hope
In His mercy
He’s given us new birth
Into a living hope, into a living hope
And this hope will not put us to shame
It will not put us to shame
And this hope will not perish or fade
It will not perish or fade
And this hope will not put us to shame
It will not put us to shame
And this hope will not perish or fade
It will not perish or fade
A living hope
