Two thousand years ago by (Godfrey Birtill)

Two thousand years ago, we bled into one
And when I think of it, I'm drunk on Your love
So great is the love
That You've lavished on us
We are your children, O God.

Now every distance 
Has been cancelled in Christ
And separation's an illusion, a lie,
So great is the love
That You've lavished on us
We are your children, O God,
That is what we are, That is what we are;
We are your children, O God,
That is what we are, That is what we are.

Playing in the fields of grace
Knowing this joy of our Pa Pa's embrace
Hear Him say, 'I love you'
Hear Him say 'I've always loved you'.

Wonderfully saved, secure
Beautifully raised for heaven, made pure;
Hear Him say, 'I love you'
Hear Him say 'I've always loved you'.

All condemnation has been cancelled in Christ
And rejections an illusion, a lie,
So great is the love
That You've lavished on us
We are your children, O God,
That is what we are, That is what we are;
We are your children, O God,
That is what we are, That is what we are.
