This is indeed a gracious one. This song always reminds of my past forgotten wretchedness how God turned my life around in His grace.

Hallelujah, Lord Your grace is indeed Amazing. May our love for the Father never go down In Jesus Name.

Anytime I listen to that song is amazing and it reminds me how God in HIS infinite mercy save my soul, makes me rededicated my life each time I heard the song. What amazing shower on me? His name is ever being praise.

The ten thousand years in verse four refers to the time after the resurrection after all those who have believed in God through our Savior Jesus Christ have gone to be with him for eternity. Thus, “no less days after ten thousand years to sign God’s praise”. Hope that helps Raphael.
