The Lion And The Lamb
Anne Barbour, Billy Batstone
Who is He...Who's mightiest of all
Who is He...Creation trembles at His call
Who is He...The lowly sacrifice,
who paid a victims price
His name is Jesus
(chorus)-
Jesus...From the Father's own right hand
Jesus...Son of God and son of man
Jesus...Who died and rose again
Jesus...He's the Lion and the Lamb
Who is He...With the power none can tame
Who is He...That every foe
would fear His name
Who is He...Who was humbly led away,
to suffer that dark day
His name is Jesus
(chorus)
He's the Lion and the Lamb
(Bridge)
He's the Lamb that was slain
He's the Lion that reigns
My Savior and King both the same
Who is He...With the eyes that burn like fire
Who is He...Oh the wonder He inspires
Who is He...Who bore the guilt and shame
For those who'd gone astray
His name is Jesus
(chorus)
He's the Lion and the Lamb
He's the Lion and the Lamb
Rise Again Lyrics
Dallas Holm & Praise
Go ahead, drive the nails in My hands;
Laugh at me... where you stand.
Go ahead, and say it isn't Me;
The day will come... when you will see.
(Refrain)
'Cause I'll rise.... again;
Ain't no power on earth can keep Me down!
Yes, I'll rise... again;
Death can't keep Me in the ground.
Go ahead, mock My name;
My love for you is still the same.
Go ahead, and bury Me;
But very soon, I will be free!
(Refrain) (Instrumental bridge)
Go ahead, and say I'm dead and gone,
But you will see that you were wrong.
Go ahead, try to hide the Son;
But all will see that I'm the One!
(Final refrain)
'Cause I'll come again!
Ain't no power on earth can keep me back!
Yes, I'll come again;
Come to take My people back.
TAKE ME TO THE CROSS
Show me all the sacred places
Show me where my faith was born
Show me where my heroes lived the life I'm longing for
Lead me to that ancient city
Where the blood of prophets runs
Lead me to His temple, take me to Jerusalem
Take me to the manger so humble
Take me to the streets where He walked
Take me where the grand teacher taught us
Take me to the cross
Lead me to the tomb of rejoicing
Show me where my freedom was fought
Show me where my sin was forgiven
Take me to the cross
Help me know and love His people
Help me see His divine plan
Help me have the courage to be more than what I am
Keep me looking for His coming
Crashing through both time and space
Keep me as a beggar longing for a taste of grace
Ancient mystery, human history
Here beneath my feet
Precious story, saving glory
Cries out from these streets
Show me all the sacred places
Show me where my faith was born
Show me where my heroes lived the life I'm longing for
THE GREAT DIVIDE
Words and Music by Grant Cunningham & Matt Huesmann
Silence
Trying to fathom the distance
Looking out 'cross the canyon carved
By my hands
God is gracious
Sin would still separate us
Were it not for the bridge His grace
Has made us
His love will carry me
(Chorus)
There's a bridge to cross the great divide
A way was made to reach the other side
The mercy of the Father, cost His son
His life
His love is deep, His love is wide
There's a cross to bridge the great divide
God is faithful
On my own I'm unable
He found me hopeless, alone and
Sent a Savior
He's provided a path and promised
To guide us
Safely past all the sin that would divide us
His love delivers me
The cross that cost my Lord His life
Has given me mine
There's a bridge to cross the great divide
There's a cross to bridge the great divide
TO EVER LIVE WITHOUT ME
The choices, even though you knew the lines
You'd have to cross for me
You made them anyway
Voices, as you knelt there in the garden
'Neath the olive tree
You heard me call your name
I cannot pretend to understand it all
But heaven knew the reason you were there
Chorus
It was all about a man
It was all about a cross
It was all about the blood that was shed
so I would not be lost
It was all about the love
That was bigger than a life
It was all about a freedom that was given
through your sacrifice
'Cause you would rather die
than to ever live without me
Helpless, that's humanity without your saving grace
So misled
Selfless, you could have called ten thousand angels
Down to take your place
But you took mine instead
I cannot pretend to understand it all
But heaven knew the reason you were there
A greater love has no one than this
That he will lay his life down for his friends
VIA DOLOROSA
Down the Via Dolorosa in Jerusalem that day
The soldiers tried to clear the narrow street
But the crowd pressed in to see
The Man condemned to die on Calvary
He was bleeding from a beating, there were stripes upon His back
And He wore a crown of thorns upon His head
And He bore with every step
The scorn of those who cried out for His death
Down the Via Dolorosa called the way of suffering
Like a lamb came the Messiah, Christ the King,
But He chose to walk that road out of
His love for you and me.
Down the Via Dolorosa, all the way to Calvary.
The blood that would cleanse the souls of all men
Made its way through the heart of Jerusalem.
Down the Via Dolorosa called the way of suffering
Like a lamb came the Messiah, Christ the King
But He chose to walk that road out of His love for you and me
Down the Via Dolorosa, all the way to Calvary.
WERE YOU THERE? by James Holihan
Were you there when they crucified my Lord?
Were you there when they crucified my Lord?
Oh, sometimes it causes me to tremble, tremble, tremble.
Were you there when they crucified my Lord?
Were you there when they laid Him in the Tomb?
Were you there when they laid His Precious body in the tomb?
Oh, sometimes it causes me to tremble, tremble, tremble
Were you there when they laid Him in the tomb?
But were you there when He rose from the grave?
But were you there when my Jesus rose from the grave?
Oh, sometimes it makes me wanna shout, and I cry, yeah.
And I begin to tremble, I tremble.
Were you there when He rose from, from the grave.
MERCY SAID NO
I was just a child when I felt the Savior leading
I was drawn to what I could not understand
And for the cause of Christ, I have spent my days believing
That what He'd have me be is who I am
As I've come see the weaker side of me
I've realized his grace is what I need
When sin demanded justice for my soul
(CHORUS)
Mercy said no
I'm not gonna let you go
I'm not gonna let you slip away
You don't have to be afraid
Mercy said no
Sin will never take control
Life and death stood face to face
Darkness tried to steal my heart away
Thank you Jesus
Mercy said no
For God so loved the world that He sent His Son to save us
From the cross He built a bridge to set us free
Oh but deep within our hearts there is still a war that rages
And makes the sacrifice so hard to see
As midnight fell on crucifixion day
The light of hope seemed oh so far away
And as evil tried to stop redemptions' flow
(CHORUS)
BRIDGE
And now when heaven looks at me
It's through the blood of Jesus
Reminding me of one day long ago
(CHORUS)
ONE DROP OF BLOOD
Words by Ray Boltz, Music by Ray Boltz and Steve Millikan
Standing in the courtroom
When I heard, how do you plead?
The accuser of the brethren
Was staring at me
He said, we got your number
There is no escape
For here are your transgressions,
Your failures and mistakes
He pointed to the corner
Where the scales of justice stood
I saw so many failures there
There was nothing good
And in that very moment
When it seemed all hope was lost
I said, I plead the blood of Jesus
And his death upon the cross
CHORUS:
One drop of blood
Fell to the scales
It covered my transgressions
And all the times I failed
The enemy was mighty
He came in like a flood
He was defeated by one drop of blood
I stood and watched in silence
As others were brought in
I saw them start to tremble
When they turned and faced their sin
They offered no excuses
They offered no alibis
The truth was overwhelming
And it would not be denied
Their righteousness like filthy rags
And nothing they could say
They bowed their heads in silence
As they were led away
But for the true believers
Each time it was the same
His glory shown around them
As they called upon his name
One drop of blood
Fell to the scales
It covered their transgressions
And all the times they failed
The enemy was mighty
He came in like a flood
He was defeated by one drop of blood
No greater sacrifice has any other made
Oh yes he paid the price
With every drop he gave
CHORUS (repeat 2X)
WHAT HELD YOU ON THE CROSS
by Michael O'Brien and Hamm
I know you--I've seen you all my life
Figure on a crucifix
Death without a fight
You're hanging there upon a cross just by your hands and feet
The picture's clear, but the story's incomplete
So what was it that led you to that tree?
What made you lay your body down to save someone like me?
So though it's true, I know that you were God inside a man
So I guess sometimes it's hard to understand
What held you on the cross when you could have walked away?
I see what you have done, and I just have to say
What held you on the cross was more than just the nails
With all the pain and suffering, and all that you had lost
Your love for me could only be what held you on the cross.
You saw me--I guess you must have known
My life would be in darkness, so you and you alone would bear the stripes,
The crown of thorns, and all humility
Lord, I see myself, but it's hard for me to see
What held you on the cross when you could have walked away?
I see what you have done, and I just have to say
What held you on the cross was more than just the nails
With all the pain and suffering, and all that you had lost
Your love for me could only be what held you on the cross.
I don't deserve your mercy, still you loved me just the same
You died for me, and yet, and yet it's hard to know
What held you on the cross when you could have walked away?
I see what you have done, and I just have to say
What held you on the cross was more than just the nails
With all the pain and suffering, and all that you had lost
Your love for me could only be what held you on the cross.
GLORY OF THE BLOOD
written by Jim Cooper & Regie Hamm
In the solitary moment of His birth
On this barren dusty land
All of heaven kissed the face of all the earth
With a miracle of love
God became a man
But He was sent away to draw His final breath
When He was only thirty-three
And in the shame of dying a criminal's death
He cleansed an angry world
And in His suffering I see
The glory of the blood
The beauty of the body
That was broken for our forgiveness
The glory of His perfect love
Is the heart of the story
The glory of the blood
Now I have tried to find salvation on my own
In a search for something real
But there's a guilty heart inside this flesh and bone
Fall upon His grace
And I begin to feel
repeat chorus
And when I close my eyes I can see Him hanging there
Oh the precious wounded Lamb of God
All the majesty in this world cannot compare to the glory
The beauty of the body
That was broken for our forgiveness
repeat chorus
But He was sent away to draw His final breath
When He was only thirty-three
NO GREATER LOVE
Before I knew your name
You knew my every breath
Before I found my way
You knew my every step
Before I knew everything that I need
You gave it all to me
(Chorus)
No greater love than this
That you should lay down your life
For someone such as me
I'd spend a life time wondering why
The beauty of heaven is here in my heart
And I know there can be
No greater love
Than this
I never understood
How mercifull love could be
Untill I felt His flame
Light every part of me
And I would give everything that I am
Cause I have been saved
Yes I have been saved
(Chorus)
No greater love than this
That you should lay down your life
For someone such as me
I spend a life time wondering why
The beauty of heaven is here in my heart
And I know there can be
No greater love
Ooohh...
The beauty of heaven is here in my heart
And I know there can be
No greater love
For someone such as me
No greater love
Than this
AT THE FOOT OF THE CROSS
Words and music by Ray Boltz and Lawrence Chewning
They were watching from a distance
And they could not
Take their eyes from You
You were bleeding
They were weeping
Faithful sisters, they had followed you
They did not understand
They could not see
They were mourning their loss
As the sky turned black
And the Earth turned red
At the foot of the cross
He was standing near your mother
They were so close
They could hear you sighing
All around them angry voices
Pierced the darkness
And you were dying
But they would not leave
They lingered there
No matter the cost
They were staying
