Defeated
(专辑: Honor And Glory - 1998)
I
was listening to my radio When something went wrong The
voice of the
announcer Suddenly came on He said, we interrupt this program With late breaking news Last night they arrested The
King of the
Jews He said, we take you now To Pilate's house Where Christ is on trial It sounded like the
announcer Was wearing a
smile As he described the
accusations In the
judgment hall And how Jesus just stood there Didn't say nothing at all Get ready everybody The
judgment's coming down I
held my breath I
closed my eyes I
didn't make a
sound Jesus defeated Was all that he said Guilty, convicted And sentenced to death Soon it will be finished On a
cross made of wood Looks like it's over for good Jesus defeated His next few words I
could hardly believe He said, we're standing here At Calvary's tree The
sky has turned black Blood covers the
land From the
spear in His side And the
nails in His hands Now some called Him a
Savior Said He lived without sin Some said it did not Do much for him Some called him Messiah God's only son Others shook their heads And said, the
good die young Jesus defeated Was all that he said Guilty, convicted, and now he is dead Yes, it is finished On a
cross made of wood Looks like it's over for good Jesus defeated Yeah, Jesus is defeated When you look at the
grave Until you see that The
stone's been rolled away Jesus is defeated When you look at all the
pain He had to feel And then you read Isaiah 53 And it says that's the
way We were healed And Jesus was defeated When you look at everything He went through And then you realize He went through it for me and you Things in the
media They're not always what they seem Jesus is alive Do you know what that means? It means Jesus defeated The
power of death Oh yes, it happened just like He said He bore our sins On a
cross made of wood He triumphed over evil for good And the
one who built his kingdom On bondage and fear The
one who killed the
prophets Left their families in tears The
father of lies, the
author of sin Everybody this just in It was him That Jesus defeated
