There Was No Other Way

1 Before the stars were hung or planets fashioned,
Before the clay was formed to make a man,
Christ was the Lamb of God for sinners offered—
This was redemption’s one and only plan.

Chorus:
1 There was no other way a God of love could find
To reconcile the world and save a lost mankind;
It took the death of His own Son upon a tree—
There was no other way but Calvary.

2 The wealth of all the world could not redeem us,
Nor could our feeble works -- so great the price!
Our only hope is in the blood of Jesus—
The blood He shed for us in sacrifice. [Chorus]

3 So, friend, if you would find the way to heaven,
If from the guilt of sin you would be free,
Accept the only way by God provided—
The great redeeming work at Calvary. [Chorus]

4 O I must tell the news where’er He leads me,
Proclaim the gospel sound both far and near;
The way, the truth, the life is found in Jesus—
This is the message all the world must hear. [Chorus]
