Story Behind The Song
Looking through Ephesians this song jumped out at me in Chapter 2.
Song Description
These gentiles lived in darkness with no meaning until Paul spoke to them. That symbolic veil was lifted then. They continued to learn about the goodness of God and their part in salvation. The Veil Of Darkness gone and their lives with meaning, hope and salvation.

Lyrics
Veil of Darkness bpm 102 3:17 w/m Penny Gottsche
V1- They walked in darkness as strangers
to the promises of the Lord.
No morning star to guide them
so much they did not know.
V2- Without hope what had they
wild blows the wind
the Veil of Darkness lay heavy
in desires of flesh and sin
Channel- Apostle Paul told the Gentiles they had been set free
made nigh by the blood at Calvary
Chorus- Veil of Darkness, lifted by love alone
Veil of Darkness, the Veil of Darkness was gone
V3- God who is rich in mercy
in Christ made us alive
all throughout the ages
would show his love through Christ.
V4- We shall sit in heavenly places
in the household of the Lord
on solid rock foundation
Jesus Christ chief Cornerstone
Channel- Apostle Paul told the gentiles they had been set free
made nigh by the blood at Calvary
Chorus- Veil of Darkness lifted by love alone
Veil of Darkness , the Veil of Darkness is gone
Tag- Veil of Darkness lifted by love alone
Veil of Darkness, the Veil of Darkness is gone
