EPHESIANS – Far Off Made Nigh by Bro H
Verse 1 We were dead in our trespasses, walking in the way Of the course of this world, led so far astray Alienated from the life of God through the ignorance of the covenant, not knowing what was true Without hope in the world, without God in our way Far from the promises given from ancient days Broken from the people, scattered in the lands Not knowing who we were, or the Father’s guiding hand Chorus We were far off… now we’re brought near By the blood, by the word, now the way is clear He is our peace, made both into one What was broken apart now is joined as one No more strangers, no more alone Now we stand as a people, now we come home From far off to near, by His mighty hand Made one in the body, restored we stand Verse 2 This was the mystery hidden through the years Spoken by the prophets but not made clear That the nations in the flesh, scattered wide abroad Would be fellow-heirs again in the things of God Children of the promise, called back by His grace Of the same body now, restored to our place Through the gospel revealed, what was always planned Bringing back the people scattered through the lands Chorus We were far off… now we’re brought near By the blood, by the word, now the way is clear He is our peace, made both into one What was broken apart now is joined as one No more strangers, no more alone Now we stand as a people, now we come home From far off to near, by His mighty hand Made one in the body, restored we stand Bridge Once we were not a people, lost in the night Now we are His people, walking in light Raised up together, seated above Built on the foundation, in covenant love Final Chorus We were far off… now we’re brought near By the blood, by the word, now the way is clear He is our peace, made both into one What was broken apart now is joined as one No more strangers, no more alone Now we stand as a people, now we come home From far off to near, by His mighty hand Made one in the body, restored we stand
