"A Moment Such As This" Lyrics

The Family's at the table
Everyone's in place
Grandma has to smile as their voices blend in thanks
Remembering the fevered brows the hurts she's gently kissed
It's all been worth it for a moment such as this

For a moment such as this
She lives
She sacrificed a lifetime to experience this bliss
She's right where she wants to be
She wouldn't want to miss what she feels
At a moment such as this

He's hanging on the cross
In pain beyond belief
Jesus hears a cry for help
Coming from a wounded thief
And in his dying moments
He gave heaven as a gift
It's all been worth it
For a moment such as this

For a moment such as this
He died
He spoke eternal life as he was crucified
He was where he had to be
So he wouldn't have to miss what he felt
At a moment such as this
(Amazing grace how sweet the sound that saved a wretch like me)

He listens from the heavens
To amazing grace
He see's a tear drop fall
Down a sinners face
Because of His great sacrifice
Mercy now exists
He did it all for a moment such as this

For a moment such as this
He lives
A past of sin and shame he cleanses and forgives
He's right where he needs to be
So that we wont have to miss how heaven feels
At a moment (at a moment) such as this
He did it all
For a moment such as this
