Crown of Joy - Song of Salvation Lyrics

Silence descends tonight
A prayer is said below
A child kneels in the light
Whispering words from her soul

Her words find their wings and ascend above
Guarded tenderly in the arms of an angel, with love
The night is quiet; the sky is dark
Until that prayer wings its way to heaven's heart

And then in glorious display
The stars dance and angels sing
A soul is saved tonight
And one more light is burning bright
In a world of darkness
What once was dead is now alive
What once was lost now is found
In celebration let the angels sing
And hear the heavens resound
It's a treasure, without measure
A soul is saved tonight

Down in an alleyway
A head is hanging low
A man weeps in the night
Full of regret and all alone

His heart is empty, his soul is dead
Until he heard God's voice whisper tenderly, and it said
Come back my child, there is still hope
And then that man said a prayer, see his face glow

And now in glorious display
The stars dance and angels sing
A soul is saved tonight
And one more light is burning bright
In a world of darkness
What once was dead is now alive
What once was lost now is found
In celebration let the angels sing
And hear the heavens resound
It's a treasure, without measure
A soul is saved tonight

Once a sinner, now a believer
Once a blind man, now they see clear
Bringing heaven to earth
It's the miracle of rebirth
Pulled straight from the flames of hell
Into the arms of an angel
Hear oh nations and rejoice
In this soul's life-changing choice

And watch in glorious display
As stars dance and angels sing
A soul is saved tonight
And one more light is burning bright
In a world of darkness
What once was dead is now alive
What once was lost now is found
In celebration let the angels sing
And hear the heavens resound
It's a treasure, without measure
A soul is saved tonight

That soul saved could be yours too
Call to Jesus, he'll answer you
Repent of all your sins
And dedicate your life to him

And watch in glorious display
As stars dance and angels sing
A soul is saved tonight, tonight
And one more light is burning bright
In a world of darkness
What once was dead is now alive
What once was lost now is found
In celebration let the angels sing
And hear the heavens resound
It's a treasure, without measure
A soul is saved tonight

By the sacrifice of Jesus Christ
Who paid the price to save our lives
From eternal death and destruction
If we'll repent and put our faith in him
He will grant us salvation

Oh, oo, ooh
And the angels will shout
The trumpets resound
And the heavens will sing
Another lost sheep is found

Yes a soul is saved tonight
Mm, mm, mm
Yes a soul is saved tonight
Oo, oo, ooh
Tonight
