JESUS IS LORD

Voice like torrents
Eyes of fire
Hands holding heaven
Jesus Messiah

Swift swords spoken
Hair pure lamb white
Feet furnaced pure bronze
Face shining light

Jesus You're Lord, Lord of my soul!
Jesus You're Lord, Lord of my soul!

When I confess
Jesus You're Lord
My spirit rests
My heart's restored

None can compare
To what You say or do
So I'll  declare,
This universal truth

Jesus is Lord, Lord of all!

Jesus is Lord, Lord of all!

HEAR THE SOUND

See the King, of Kings
Come in glory
See the Lord, of Lords
Come in majesty

Ooo…

See His eyes flame with fire
His robes dipped in blood
See Him speak razor swords
Behold our God

Hear the sound! Hear the sound of creation await Your glory!
Hear the cry! Hear the cry of the Saints, crying ‘Thou art Holy!’
Hear the shout! Hear the shout of the elders claiming, ‘Thou art worthy!’
Hear the song! Hear the song of the angels singing ‘Hallelujah!’

See Him crowned many crowns
With His sword raised high
On His white shining steed
Riding from the sky

Hear Him roar on the clouds
Heaven opening
See all Lords and Kings
Bow before Him

Hear the sound! Hear the sound of creation await Your glory!
Hear the cry! Hear the cry of the Saints, crying ‘Thou art Holy!’
Hear the shout! Hear the shout of the elders claiming, ‘Thou art worthy!’
Hear the song! Hear the song of the angels singing ‘Hallelujah!’
Hallelujah! Hallelujah!

Hear the sound! (Hear the sound!) Hear the cry! (Hear the cry!)
Hear the shout! (Hear the shout!) Hear the song!
Of the One (of the one), yes Who is (yes who is)
And Who is (and who is) to come!

Hear the sound! Hear the sound of creation await Your glory!
Hear the cry! Hear the cry of the Saints, crying ‘Thou art Holy!’
Hear the shout! Hear the shout of the elders claiming, ‘Thou art worthy!’
Hear the song! Hear the song of the angels singing ‘Hallelujah!’
Hallelujah! Hallelujah!

Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
Hallelujah…

EVERY KNEE

You died a criminals death

And hung there on the cross

When You drew your final breath

You made a way for us…


Our perfect sacrifice

You took our sins away

Willingly You gave Your life

So we may know your name

How the Father raised you from the dead
You’re worthy to conquer the grave
You’ve ascended and are seated at the Father’s side
And given His holy name
Now there’s no other name like…

Jesus! Jesus! Every knee shall bow before
Jesus! Jesus! It’s You I adore! You I adore!
Jesus! Jesus! You are King and Lord of all!
Jesus! Jesus! Forevermore! Jesus is Lord! …
(You are Lord! You are Lord! You are Lord! You are Lord!)

Our heavens spotless lamb
You still wear Your scars
Every single one of them
To show your love for us


How the Father raised you from the dead
You’re worthy to conquer the grave
You’ve ascended and are seated at the Father’s side
And given His holy name
Now there’s no other name like…

Jesus! Jesus! Every knee shall bow before
Jesus! Jesus! It’s You I adore! You I adore!
Jesus! Jesus! You are King and Lord of all!
Jesus! Jesus! Forevermore! Jesus is Lord! …

(You are Lord! You are Lord! You are Lord! You are Lord!)

Forever and ever and ever and ever
All glory and honour and praise to You!
Forever and ever and ever and ever
We lift Your name, Your mighty name!

Your holy name! Your righteous name!
For there’s no other name like…

Jesus! Jesus! Every knee shall bow before
Jesus! Jesus! It’s You I adore! You I adore!
Jesus! Jesus! You are King and Lord of all!
Jesus! Jesus! Forevermore! Jesus is Lord! …
(You are Lord! You are Lord! You are Lord! You are Lord!)

Child murdered in room

No Fracking Song (Fracking Hell)

Fracked water leaves you dead
Like a bullet to the head
With much to lose, much at stake
Kill these bastards for Pete's sake

Clean water. Clean air
Those who frack us do not care
'No!' to fracking, 'No!' to wells
We don't need no fracking hell

Fracking hell, frackin hell
We don't need no fracking hell
We can smell, what they sell
We don't need no fracking hell

They'll kill with the shake of hand
Goodbye family, goodbye land
Mining corps keep on drilling
Knowing they will make a killing

Fracking hell, frackin hell
We don't want no fracking hell
What they sell, we can smell
We don't want no fracking hell

So put fracked water in your gun
Force their benzene on their tongue
Put their water where their mouth is
Aim for these corporates houses

They made mistakes and had their chance
We've caught them in their underpants
These liars are exploiting us for gain
As our water goes up in flames

Fracking hell, frackin hell
We don't want no fracking hell
What they sell, we can smell
We don't want no fracking hell

WHERE IS THE GOSPEL PREACHED?

Wherever we go, wherever we meet
C’mon! Where is the gospel preached?
From the pulpit to the pew, from the pew to the beat
C’mon! Where is the gospel preached?

From the Charismatic, Pentecostal, Wesleyan
Uniting, Baptist and Anglican
To the Seeker, Emerging or Lutheran
We’re slowly becoming Ladoacean

Why? Where is the gospel preached?
What? What is the gospel preached?
When? When is the gospel preach? 3… 2… 1…

Christ died! Christ died while we were all sinners
Christ rose! Christ rose ‘n hit the clouds of heaven
Christ came! Christ came! Repent of sin you are forgiven!
By faith in message hear it, not swayed by clever speech
C’mon receive His Spirit – that is the gospel preached

I hear the average Joe in the average street, say
C’mon! Where is the gospel preached?
When I try to teach them, it’s me they teach, saying
C’mon! Where is the gospel preached?

From the Charismatic, Pentecostal, Wesleyan
Uniting, Baptist and Anglican
To the Seeker, Emerging or Lutheran
We’re slowly becoming Ladoacean

Why? Where is the gospel preached?
What? What is the gospel preached?
When? When is the gospel preach? 3… 2… 1…

Christ died! Christ died while we were all sinners
Christ rose! Christ rose ‘n hit the clouds of heaven
Christ came! Christ came! Repent of sin you are forgiven!
By faith in message hear it, not swayed by clever speech
C’mon receive His Spirit – that is the gospel preached

Spoken: ‘That’s not the FULL gospel’ some are saying. I hear your spraying. Rapid-fire time!

See the facets of God in full view of
The world in all it’s sin thereof
The cross and blood, full expression of God
Killers of Christ still play the same façade

Your sin is what murdered Him that day
But you think you’re not like what I say
But thin is the rope you walk today
Stuck in your pride and guilt and shame

This is what He came for, this is true
He died to save sinners me and you
Stop looking at yourself and look beyond
Christ saved you from your sin and wrong

He did this for You but more so for God
To demonstrate the glory and riches of
The goodness, the mercy and amazing grace
To show the full expression of the Father’s face

Get down and repent –start your confession
See the cross of Christ and it’s full expression
Of grace and mercy peace, faith and love
Of death and life, hope, judgment and wrath

More is revealed in this manifestation
God’s glory, conquest and humiliation
Most importantly truth and man’s salvation
See the gospel of truth is our proclamation

These facts are recorded, these facts are real
Rely on the truth, not what you feel
The Spirit is here to bring you to an end
A new life for you is about to begin

He’s more faithful then you’ll ever be
For He gave his life for sinners – you and me
Now we don’t live for us but live for Christ
Living in His Spirit of abundant life

Preach the news of what Christ has done
Preach the Christ and us: His outcome
We’re made in Him from different tribes and races
And seated now in heavenly places

It’s all for His glory and not our own
Our time is later – heaven’s home
Go boldly into His heavenly throne
And stand to make the gospel known

Cos Jesus is our Word and our Word is who?
He’s Lord of the Gentiles and King of the Jews
He is who we preach to the chosen few
Jesus is our Good News…

Christ died! Christ died while we were all sinners
Christ rose! Christ rose ‘n hit the clouds of heaven
Christ came! Christ came! Repent of sin you are forgiven!
By faith in message hear it, not swayed by clever speech
C’mon receive His Spirit – that is the gospel preached

EMPTY CROSS

I bow down at an empty cross
Knowing what Your death achieved
I bow down at an empty cross
Remembering when I first believed
  For I bow down not to a tree of death
  But the tree with hands that heal
  For I bow down to the Word and Breath
  The Power of God- the Christ revealed

I bow down at an empty cross
Remembering for me You came
I bow down at an empty cross
Knowing You took up Your life again
  For I bow down not to a tree of shame
  But the tree known as the Tree of Life
  For I bow down where God broke my chains
  Through the work of Jesus Christ

I bow down at an empty cross
Where it's power and proof redeems
I bow down at an empty cross
Seeing the blood of many stain its beams
  For I bow down not to a tree of fools
  But the tree known as the Tree of Truth
  For I bow down where God broke Satan's rule
  This act of God - our living proof

I bow down at an empty cross
Seeing the Son behind it arise
I bow down at an empty cross
That points to Him on triumphant skies
  For I bow down not to a tree of choice
  But the tree called the Tree of the Way
  For I bow down to my Saviours voice
  The cross - His final say!

I bow down to an empty cross
That the world declares a myth
I bow down to an empty cross
That declares that I am His
  For I bow down not to gods of vice
  Made of tree, steel, lies and stone
  For I bow down to the proof of Christ
  Who reigns upon His throne

I bow down at an empty cross
Pointing to Resurrection
I bow down at an empty cross
Seeing the Son in the distance ascend
  For I bow down not to a tree of doom
  But the tree that crucified my sin
  For I bow down knowing He'll come soon
  Where His reign shall have no end

I bow down at an empty cross
Not to self, nor works, nor myths
I bow down at an empty cross
Where the cross declares I'm His
  For I bow down not to gods of vice
  made of lies, tree, steel or stone
  For I bow down to Lord Jesus Christ
  Where reigns forever on His throne
