Lyrics
Well the years kept rolling onward
And the prophets kept the flame
Telling every generation
Of the Savior who would come one day
Though the world was full of trouble
And the road was often rough
They held fast to every promise
When believing had to be enough
They couldn’t see tomorrow
Tomorrow
But they knew the One they loved
The One they loved
They lived as though He already was
Already was
Walking by faith and trusting love
Trusting love
Building their lives upon His word
And looking heavenward above
Though the years stood in between
In between
Their hearts knew who He was
Who He was
They followed Him each day
As though He already was
They taught their sons and daughters
Of the Lamb who’d come to save
Every sacrifice and token
Pointed to the One who’d leave the grave
And when fear came in the nighttime
Or the enemy drew near
They remembered all His promises
And found a reason not to fear
The future was unfolding
Unfolding
But the truth was always there
Always there
They lived as though He already was
Already was
Walking by faith and trusting love
Trusting love
Building their lives upon His word
And looking heavenward above
Though the years stood in between
In between
Their hearts knew who He was
Who He was
They followed Him each day
As though He already was
The years rolled on
The prophets spoke
The prophets spoke
And every promise stood
Every promise stood
Through every age
Through every land
Through every land
The faithful understood
He was before tomorrow
Before tomorrow
He was before the past
Before the past
The God who made the covenant
Would keep it to the last
They lived as though He already was
Already was
The Author of eternal love
Eternal love
The One who held tomorrow’s dawn
And watched from heaven above
Though centuries would come and go
Come and go
Their hearts knew who He was
Who He was
The Great I AM
The Living Christ
The Great I AM
The Living Christ
Forever He has been
Forever He will be
The Savior of the world
Forever present
Still with me
The Savior of the world
Forever present
Still with me
The Great I AM
The Living Christ
Forever present
Still with me
As though He already was
