Who'd have guessed
The cold midwest
Is where You'd be
Shining down
Far from the towns
Of Galilee
O Jesus, help us listen
O Jesus, help us see
Your Kingdom come
Your will be done
On earth, Your Majesty
Lord, it hurts
Come break the curse
And heal this land
It's way too hard
It's battle-scarred
Like everyman
O Jesus, help us listen
O Jesus, help us see
Your Kingdom come
Your will be done
On earth, Your Majesty

Patience patience is what we need
For waiting without wasting time
Working working the soil with seed
To reap all the grain faith will find
Cuz it won't be long before we hear Him shout
And it won't be long before the trumpet sounds
And it won't be long before the dead in Christ will rise
Courage courage is what we need
For giving without giving in
Working working the soil with seed
To feast on the bread faith will win
Cuz it won't be long before we hear Him shout
And it won't be long before the trumpet sounds
And it won't be long before the dead in Christ will rise

Isn't it Good?
04:13
|

Isn't it strange
How we miss a place we've never even seen
Cuz this wilderness is somewhere in between
The land we came from
And the land we will receive
Isn't it strange?
But isn't it good
That our slavery to sin was left behind
When He broke the bread and let us drink the wine
Of His forgiveness
And the water of His life
Isn't it good?
Isn't it good
Isn't it good
Isn't it good to be alive?
Isn't it hard
Resurrection never comes without the cross
And when you see the pain of people who are lost
Without the answer
That demands of them their life
Isn't it hard?
But isn't it good
The wages of our sin were fully paid
To the only one who never disobeyed
And it is finished
It's finished on that cross
Isn't it good?
Isn't it good
Isn't it good
Isn't it good to be alive
In Christ?

Hallelujah! Praise the Lord
If He's raised you from the dead
If He's called you out of the darkness
And now you run to Him instead
Praise the Lord
Hallelujah! What a friend
He can keep you til the Day
Cuz He was tempted and He was abandoned
But He never turned away
Praise the Lord

When guilt comes back around
And pushes you down in the shadows
And tells you to stay there and hide
Because everyone knows
All the evidence shows
That you're really just posing and playing the part
While you're filthy inside
Don't believe it
Don't believe it
Don't believe it
Don't believe it
Cuz your guilt was nailed to the cross
You're no longer lost in the shadows
You're found in the favor of Christ
So let everyone know
Let the evidence show
That His Spirit is living and giving the love
Of His great sacrifice
Cuz you believe it
You believe it
You believe it
You believe it
Cuz He lives to make you his own
You're never alone in the shadows
You're safe in the kingdom of light
And the glory of God
Is the loss of His blood
Oh Father, great is Your love
Great is Your love

When Every Eye Will See
06:15
|
|||
We are voices, we are voices
With words from the past
In the desert preparing Your way
We are watching, we are waiting
For all that will last
In the kingdom revealed on that day
When every eye will see You
Even those who pierced You
And every knee will bow down
And every tongue will cry out
Jesus is Lord
Jesus is Lord of Lords
We are children, we are children
Alive from the dead
In the kingdom we seek and proclaim
We are watching, we are waiting
For all that You said
To reveal every heart for Your name
When every eye will see You
Even those who pierced You
And every knee will bow down
And every tongue will cry out
Jesus is Lord
Jesus is Lord of Lords
