Break The Yoke

(álbum: Watch The Lamb - 1986)

Standing up on the outside
Falling down within
Looking righteous as a pharisee
Filled with guilt and sin
Trying to walk with Jesus
The strait and narrow road
Holding on to this world
I just could not let go
That's such a heavy road

Come and break the yoke Lord
Come and set this child free
Come tear down the walls of pride
And all I hide beneath
Freedom always came to those
Who receive the words you spoke
I receive your word, break the yoke
I receive your word, break the yoke

Praying with my brother
Is such a precious time
When I confessed my weaknesses
He joined his hands with mine
I know something happened
When he prayed with me
The weight of sin fell off
Jesus set me free

Come and break the yoke Lord
Come and set your children free
Come tear down the walls of pride
And false humility
The nail scars in your hands and feet
Prove your love for us is not a joke
Do what you must, break the yoke
Do what you must, break the yoke

Now I'm back on my feet again
A new life's begun
Every day I'm walking with Jesus
But you know there are days we even run
Set free to serve and worship Him
All the chains He broke
I'll praise His name forever
He broke the yoke
I'll praise your name Lord
You broke the yoke, you broke the yoke

Behold
Behold the cross that Jesus bore
Behold the crown of thorns that he wore
Behold the price that Jesus paid
The glorious sacrifice that he made

Behold, oh behold, Jesus Christ the Lord
Behold, He is the one that we adore

Behold the tomb where Jesus lay
Behold the stone, it's been rolled away
Behold His resurrection power
He lives again, He lives this hour

Behold the world in slumber lies
And then thunder fills the skies
An angel shouts, a trumpet sounds
The saints of God are glory bound

And we adore you Lord
And we adore your name
And we lift up our hearts in praise
