Jesus Christ



Awake
 a pause to meditate on the pay
 a humble need to bow the knee to pray
 you came to open our hearts
 to turn us from Satan onto God

 that we may have forgiveness of sin
 and inheritance among us
 which is sanctified by faith that is in him
 Lord, you drew a line in the sand
 parting way for the accusers to prevent her from being stoned
 picked up the cross on the way to Golgotha

 taught us from the sermon of the mount
 feeding of the five thousand
 you rose again & then appeared to your chosen one's
 Jesus...Jesus...Jesus your the lover of our soul
 you come take control
 come with healing in your hand

 Father forgive them for we know not what they do
 he said the prayer now the rest is up to you.
 you provided sight to the blind
 cast out demons to that troubled man
 when will we ever live to understand

 Come fill our hearts with your dear love
 sent by your angels from the hand of God
 shelter us with your rich message of hope
 Give us your peace that passes all understanding
 blood stained crown upon your head
 you were risen from the dead

 you were with Satan in the desert alone
 cast thyself down he said but you never relented
 Lord Jesus be with us today
 show all of us the way to heaven we pray
