PUT AWAY YOUR SWORD

Peter, put away your sword, I will fight this at the cross.
Through this I’ll be restored, and from the grave raised up
My brothers put away your sword, this battle I will win!
Acknowledge me as Lord, and I will fight for You as King!

You fight not against the flesh, but unseen authorities and powers that be
I AM your rest and righteousness, through what I’ve done on Calvary
I will be Your sword and fight against those that grieve you
Simply put on the armour of God so that no man will deceive you

Pray and acknowledge who I am and in everything I have done
And love me and your neighbour, stand in agreement with the Son
So put away Your sword, and watch what the Lord will bring
The Sword of the Spirit shall be in the hands of your divine warrior King!

WE WILL SOAR

You smile upon me, with eyes of love
Embracing me, in wings of gold
You take me to skies, on regal wings
Over me You sing to my soul

(And) We will soar over mountains, on winds of love, never ceasing
Responding to creation’s cry, united hearts forever reaching
We will grow and we will go, to nations and beyond revealing
Jesus Christ! The Tree Of Life!

Wherever I go, You’re there in breath
Whispering words – Your glory speaks
You pour out your grace, our hearts laid bare
I know You care for me

(And) We will soar over mountains, on winds of love, never ceasing
Responding to creation’s cry, united hearts forever reaching
We will grow and we will go, to nations and beyond revealing
Jesus Christ! The Tree Of Life!
Jesus Christ! The One True Light!
Jesus Christ! The Way, The Truth, The Life!

Freely You gave, now man receives
You bought healing in Your leaves
Faith to those who don’t believe

We will be tested, we will be tried
But Your Love, He’ll never die
We will be broken, bought down by men
But you’ll raise the dead again

We will be mocked, we will be curse
But it’s You they hated first
We’ll taste the dust or smell the grave
But we know the life that saves!

(And) We will soar over mountains, on winds of love, never ceasing
Responding to creation’s cry, united hearts forever reaching
We will grow and we will go, to nations and beyond revealing
Jesus Christ! The Tree Of Life!
Jesus Christ! The One True Light!
Jesus Christ! The Way, The Truth, The Life!

BLOOD ANGEL

Drip… Drip… Drip…
A spear in it’s side
Head hunched low
Dead eyes open wide

It’s spirit in it’s blood
Releasing life to the dust
Cries from the clay
Dismantling earth’s crust

Awkward shadows fill sky
Sun turns to black
Rome trembles at this Apollo
Who’ll claim its life back

This angel enters death
The grave where Hades lives
And haunts the dead to rise
Makes their ghosts captives

The blood of this angel
Met with Abel’s in the ground
Both their blood was innocent
Their cry to heaven was resound

It mingled with blood of ancients
To captive blood in docent
Preaching to captives far-away
Ministering to the innocent

It always had a thirst for blood
For purity and righteousness
From Egypt, to animal sacrifice
It saw that all was worthless

But it knew what to judge
According to Heaven’s plan
It’s blood moving through blood
And bones of animal and man

All ancient spirit-life and power
Revealed through creation’s blood
None displayed a righteousness
Divine closeness to their God

Breathe… Breathe… Breathe…
Blood Angel come to Land of the Living!
Both worthy as both God and man
Your blood in death keeps on giving!

You’ve bled upon men’s souls
Upon the people and the nations
It’s seeped through clouds of heaven
And drenches all fallen creation

Blood Angel you have come
Placing redemption in all things
Ascend up to the clouds
Where angels to You they’ll sing

Now creation will follow You
From death to life to perfection
And every single spirit of man
Will follow Your suit of Resurrection

All things of God are given
Through the blood of the Lord of Hosts
Blood Angel you are Jesus Christ
And in my blood is Your Bloodied Ghost

Drip… Drip… Drip…
A Son on God’s side
Head up knowing why
For you and me He died

VEIL OF GOD

Now atoned, their is no need
For sacrifice for sins
Before the Most Holiest Place
We freely enter in

Through the flesh and through the blood
Yes! Through that Veil of God (Jesus!)
Through the new and living way
That Jesus made for us

We are made alive in Christ
Placed within the side of Christ
Forever we abide in Christ
Walking in the light of Christ

Now made clean through waters pure
You lead me to Your courts
With conscience cleansed, I will confess
That Jesus Christ is Lord

Through the hope and promised grace
With hearts that are sincere
On our High Priest we will lean
Who casts out all our fears

The Way, the Truth and the Life
To Father God is Jesus Christ
The broken Veil of God in flesh
And bread holds us within His righteousness!

JUDGE JUDGE

Lord! Let the hammer fall
Like it did upon Your flesh
Come make the judgment call
Upon unrighteousness

You judge! You judge! You judge! You judge all men!
You judge! You judge! You judge! You judge all men!

Lord! Let Your Spirit fall
To convict the hearts of men
Come move within their soul
And deliver them from sin

You judge! You judge! You judge! You judge all men!
You judge! You judge! You judge! You judge all men!

And rightly so!

Your love came down
And was harshly crowned
Of the thorns and scorned
With such hat-r-ed! Hat-r-ed!
Your love bore wrath
Upon that cross!
The sin of men
You’d taken on! Taken on! Taken on!

Judge Judge! Judge Judge! Judge Judge!

We hold firm to Your blood covenant
Where Your mercy triumphs judg-m-ent
But we desire to see You – come a-gain!
Raise the dead and judge the hearts of men!

Judge Judge! Judge Judge! Judge Judge!

WHERE IS THE SUN?

Where is the sun? I need her now?
Where is the sun? I need her now?
Where is the sun? I need her now?
Where is the sun? I need her now?

I miss the touch of sundrops in her hair...
I long to feel her sunshine everywhere...
I miss her warmth, her sweet embrace...
Her crystal touch, her air of grace...

Where is the morning that she brings?
Where is the morning that she brings?
Where is the morning that she brings?
Where is the morning that she brings?

I miss the magpies sing her song...
The winds and waves that sing along...
I long to see the light shine from her eyes...
Her quiet breath, her tender sighs...

I was blinded by her light
She took from me my sight
I can only see the night
Now she's gone...

Now I'm blinded my pain
Even though she's here again
Her light does not remain
Any more...

DEFEATED (2COR 2:14-16)

What is the smell
That’s a fragrance to the Saviour
But to the world
Is a stench of death?
It is I, defeated with the Christ

What is the sight
That’s abhorrent to all people
But brings to light
The knowledge of God?
It is I, treated like, the Christ

No longer captive to my sin
I’m made captive by my Lord
Made a spectacle before all men
I can only live his Word

So I look upon
The eyes of the one
Who gave His life for me
And I stand
And raise my hands
To my king who holds my destiny
We are crucified
With our arms raised high
Thank You Lord
For
Giving us Your
Life

What’s there to win
Now that my life is over
Set free from sin
And the power of death?
It is Christ! No longer I – but the price

So I look upon
The eyes of the one
Who gave His life for me
And I stand
And raise my hands
To my king who holds my destiny
We are crucified
With our arms raised high
Thank You Lord
For
Giving us Your
Life

I am defeated!
I am defeated!
Now I lead the – dead to death
– the alive to life

And I look upon
The scars of the one
Who gave His life for me
And I stand
And raise my hands
To my king who destroyed my destiny

So I look upon
The eyes of the one
Who gave His life for me
And I stand
And raise my hands
To my king who holds my destiny
We are crucified
With our arms raised high
Thank You Lord
For
Giving us Your
Life

Thank You Lord for your eternal life...
