Arriving

|

Hear the cry of people desperate
Nations waiting for a rescuer
(Reveal yourself to us)
All eternity hangs on one night
Where future far and ancient past collide
Dreaming of the one arriving
The freedom and the fame
Promise of a hope undying
The rescue and the reign
On this night every star shine out
Tell the skies of a love come down
On this night every heart cry out
For your freedom arriving

Light (When You Call)
04:56

From the desert Jesus comes, a fire in his eyes
Passion in his heart, a holy purpose in his mind
As he teaches them the people hang on every word
Crowds appear to hear the wanderer of Nazareth
When you call, men follow
When you speak, people change
Where you are, darkness goes
You are the light we've been waiting for
He calls disciples out of criminals and fishermen
In a moment they leave everything to follow him
Friend of prostitutes and lepers and adulterers
Hope to hopelessness and freedom for the prisoner

Water Walker
04:23
|
|

Moonlight scatters in the night haze
Sailing shadows as we cross the lake
Through the mist a man we all know
Walks across the water like a ghost
Thunder groans and the winds rush
Rolling torrents breaking over us
Calm in the chaos, he cries
Peace and the storm subsides
Even the water, even the waves
Even the water, even the waves obey
With a touch he heals the unclean
Deaf men hear and the blind can see
Now the cripple stands, picks up his mat
And walks away from his disease
Even the water, even the waves
Even the water, even the waves obey
Every sickness, every disease
Every darkness dies when you speak
Who is this man of wonder
Commands the storm and stills my heart
Who is this water walker
Surely he is the son of God

Once, there was a certain man
He had a son
Who asked his father for
His inheritance
Soon, he ran far away
With all he had
And wildly wasted everything
In a distant land
Starved, he longed to eat the food
That fed the pigs
Drowning in regret
Struggling to live
Still, watching for his son
The father stood
Waiting patiently
For the prodigal to return
Son come home
The fire is warm
The table is set
A feast is prepared
To welcome you home
Whatever you've done
It's all forgiven
So son come home

The Offense

Religious mobs, the pharisees
Stand and watch the man the crowds have come to see
He breaks their rules, disturbs their peace
And inwardly they burn with anger as he speaks
You empty frauds, you hypocrites
You turn away the very souls I welcome in
You tie them up with rules you make
And load them down with burdens they weren't meant to take
Only you can save a soul and make it new
You are the truth, the way to life, the saviour
Only you
You keep the law, tithe all you own
You fast and pray but I despise your fancy shows
You whitewashed tombs, you kings of greed
You think you're holy but your hearts are far from clean
Religion cannot save, religion cannot save
Religion can't erase the depths of all a mans mistakes
Oh God we need your grace, Oh God we need your grace
Oh God we need your freedom to release us from these chains

Unstoppable

You know what is to come
You see the whips, you see the blood
And still you pray, o God your will be done
You stand, refuse to run
You see us all, what we'll become
And all the pain cannot contain your love
Your love for me is unstoppable
You see the crowds as they
Approach, abandoned and betrayed
Alone, the son of God is led away
But you allow the chains
Because you know that through the pain
The ones you love will be made free again
The blameless one accused
You stand in silence as they choose
To take your life and crucify the truth
Your body beaten blue
Your blood runs red, the final proof
Your love for us revealed in every wound

Dust and dirt, the weight of our worst
On your shoulders
In our place you suffered our pain
Now we know what love is
Nails that turned the mess of the world
Into your hands
Whips that laced your skin with our shame
Now we know what love is
Grace that cost your death on a cross
Every debt was
Torn in two, forever removed
Now we know what love is

Golgotha
06:13
|

Dark invading the day, shading the place of the skull
And the crowds that bayed for blood
Fear now comes, reaching with piercing arms
That silence every heart
Life that has gone, leaving an emptiness
That aches for what is lost
Man that was God,
Hanging from broken bones
Golgotha
Where your light went out and the dark descended
Death covers this place, here to claim the one
Who woke his slaves from sleep
Come to repay every dead man raised
And stolen from his keep
Into the grave, ready to take the one
Whose life denied his sting
No-one escapes,
This is the day death wins
You make all things come alive again

Early In The Morning

Early in the morning, on the first day of the week
As the first ray of dawn touches the ground,
The earth stirs
The clouds glow with heavenly fire as the night retreats,
And through this half-light two women walk
While the earth wakes
As they draw closer to the tomb of their master,
The shadows shrink, The darkness dissolves, The silence breaks,
And the earth moves
Violently the ground convulses and cracks, Rocks shift and boulders roll
Terrified the women race towards the tomb, find the entrance wide open
And in that moment the earth stills
They move forward with the morning light, And as they enter the air feels alive
Inside they see the grave-clothes empty, the body gone
And they wonder
Suddenly a figure appears, brighter than the sun still climbing the horizon
They fall to their knees, hide their eyes, and here in the tomb as the third day begins,
The angel speaks
Do not be afraid… Why do you look for the living among the dead?
He is not here… The darkness has been defeated
Jesus has risen
You're beautiful
