Ordinary Time - A Higher, Deeper Praise lyrics

You who cry out 'mine' to All the wonders of your world; You take all the cre-dit, You have made it all. Yet You have cried 'mine' to Ev'ry dark and bitter sin You took all the credit For our fall. You deserve the glory You have borne the shame Lead us to a higher deeper praise! You who spoke to Moses, On Sinai long ago; Showed us how to know You In this desert waste But who has followed Save the man who was our God? Who but the lawgiver Has obeyed? You are the victor Shattering both sin and d**h Who can stand to challenge Your eternal throne? But You were defeated; You were beaten, stripped and scorned. What of human pain Have You not known? God tells our story And plays each needful part He is author yet He steps onto the page Come and praise our playwright Who alone has truly played He transforms the story From the stage.
