Scarlet Thread (feat. Zach Williams)

Moving from the gates of Eden

God made garments from the skin

Of a beast that died to show

The covering we would need for sin

Abraham on Mount Moriah

With an altar, but no lamb

Lifts his knife to offer Isaac

But then God provides the ram

And oh, what love poured out across the ages

All of heaven’s kindness running red

Oh, what mercy there upon the pages

All God’s children praise the weaver of the scarlet thread

Crimson stains around the doorway

As the angel’s shadow fell

Safe from judgment death passed over

All the sons of Israel

Rope of red, a sign of promise

From a window in the wall

Rahab’s family to be rescued

When old Jericho would fall

And oh, what love poured out across the ages

All of heaven’s kindness running red

Oh, what mercy there upon the pages

All God’s children praise the weaver of the scarlet thread

Oh, the scarlet thread

Oh, the scarlet thread

Every priest within the temple

Sees the bloodshed, knows the cost

Every lamb on every altar

Pointing us toward the cross

For the cross speaks once forever

Once to heal and overthrow

Every sin that left us scarlet

So He made us white as snow, white as snow

Oh, what love poured out across the ages

All of heaven’s kindness running red

Oh, what mercy there upon the pages

All God’s children praise the weaver of the scarlet thread

And oh, what love poured out across the ages

All across the ages

All of heaven’s kindness running red

Running red

Oh, what mercy there upon the pages

All God’s children praise the weaver of the scarlet thread

All God’s children praise the weaver of the scarlet thread

The scarlet thread
