Risen Rap

He is back from the dead
The one and only
Come back king
Just like he told me
The king came back
forever he'll hold me
first in my heart
I'll love him only
Jesus Christ,
So pure and so holy
risen from the prison
And I'm so glad he showed me

yeah. I'm so glad he showed me.

When it was all over
Back from the dead
down but not out
Remember what he said,
I'll be back
And that's what he did
The prince of life
The come back kid

The crowd goes silent
The king goes down
man starts to count
he's lost his crown
The devil is dancing
The new king in town
The man gets to 9
he starts to frown
The king springs up
And the devil goes down
Yeah the devil goes down,

Resurrection
Yeah, you heard me
Goodnight Satan
arrivederci,
sayonara sucker
Asta la vista
I'm praising my Jesus
All over Easter,
Cos this is a small taste
Of the feast ta
come
In  heaven

I'm talkin Jesus
The great I am
The lion of Judah
The risen lamb

Risen from the prison
And forever I'll praise him
Defeater of Sin
God saw fit to raise him

Justified
glorified
Lifted to
The fathers side

Name above
all other names
I'll praise Jesus
I'm not a shamed

Risen indeed for our vindication
The living hope for the dying nations
The author of salvation
Back from the grave, on a short vacation,


He took the sin
He took the pain
On the cross
scorned it's shame,
Rose from the dead
Back to life he came
Risen forever
Risen to reign
King forever in the hall of fame

He is back from the dead
The one and only
Come back king
Just like he told me
The king came back
And forever he'll hold me
The first in my heart
I'll love him only
Jesus Christ,
So pure and so holy
risen from the prison
An' I'm so glad he showed me

Yeah. I'm so glad he showed me.









Resurrection poem

This poem,
Is like a resurrection
Ideas dead
The page empty
No sign of life
And then
Almost from nowhere
The cursor moves
and breaks the curse
of stagnation,
And absence of inspiration ,

where once we had nothing,
we have something,
Life from death.

You want proof
well you're reading this
Aren't you?

Two Thieves

Two thieves hanging,
Either side of Christ,
In turn we hear them speaking,
Beside the sacrifice,

Thief One

Look at you, Jesus,
What do you think you've done
You just hang there, bleeding
You couldn't save anyone?

With nails through your hands,
How are you gonna help me
You couldn't even get yourself
Down from this tree

All your miracles and preaching
Where did it get ya?
Did it get you crucified with me?
Yeah, you betcha,

You had it all, man,
Loved by all the Land
What did I ever get,
Except what I took with my own hands?

You've blown it Jesus,
You've thrown it away
How you getting out of this
Let alone rise on the third day

If you really were the Saviour
If you gave a damn for me
You'd Save yourself, and us,
And get me down from this
Murder tree,

But you're nothing
Your cause as good as lost,
Your dead and going nowhere,
Nailed to this wooden Cross,

I wish I could believe you
But that crown upon your head
Makes you the King of fools
And your dream; as good as dead,

I may be hanging here, on this cross
Same as you, fool,
But at least I never thought
That I was born to rule,

Messiah, King of Jews?
Pull the other one,
You' re hated worse than me
Who do you think you are, Son?

Thief Two

Don't you fear God, man,
What, not even now?
When we've been justly caught
And we're strung up anyhow?

Can't you see the truth, man,
Cant you see it plain,
We deserve to die,
We deserve to have this pain,

You know what got us nailed?
You know what got us pinned?
You know we're a pair of sinners,
You know we've always sinned,

You've gotta hold your hands up,
To what they say we've done,
But looking at this crowd I'd say,
We're no worse than anyone,

But not this man,
He' shouldn't be here,
He has done no wrong,
I can see that now, so clear,

I can see in him, beneath the blood and cuts
I can hear his breath of life,
Beneath the jeers and tuts,
I can see, that he, in spite of everything
Holds himself with dignity, and innocence,
He really is a King,


And this man is,
As innocent as the day he was born,
Stretched out between us,
Cut up,
bruised,
Torn,

He is silent Like a sheep is silent,
Before being shorn,
Though I hang here dying,
I feel like I'm being born,

Jesus , Jesus, you hang here, the same as me,
There isn't much between us, hanging on a tree,
But as we wait here, Jesus, to meet eternity,
When you come into your kingdom,
Lord, remember me,


Jesus

This day I tell you
In paradise,
You'll be with me,
Because when you looked at me
You could really see

And it's the same for all people,
Who see me for who I really am,
Not a tragic joke,
But the sacrificial Lamb,

For all those who see,
Just what it is I give,
Well they don't see a joke,
They look on me and live,



Narrator


So ask yourself a question,
Is there something you may have missed?
And what kind of man
Loves like this?
