Story behind the song
Written last fall, this song goes on my second album. It's almost ready for prime time, close enough to post here, but it will be updated when 'Final'. I believe people need to hear the message of Who Jesus claimed to be, and how He proved those claims through the Power of His Resurrection. I'm putting a parental Advisory on this mainly because the song includes the words 'sex' and 'lust' and the concept of adultery. However, they are mentioned 'in passing' in a clinical manner.
Lyrics
Verse 1: It was early afternoon, they had left the teeming town Many followed Him around And the view was quite profound So the Master settled down And the people gathered round And He opened up His mouth and He taught them. Bridge: YOU say "Do not murder. those who do will die." But I say "If you're angry, hate him, call him names, I say you're just as guilty, too." YOU say, "Don't have sex outside your marriage. Those who do are judged." But I say, "If you look at her, with eyes of lust, I say You're just as guilty, too." Verse2: Well the Pharisees and Scribes Sat and listened in surprise, As He taught, apparently With as much authority As the Holy Scriptures do, So they said, "Just who are you!?" And He opened up His mouth, and He told them: "I AM the Word! I AM the Light! I AM the Way, the Truth, and the Life! I AM the Door! I AM the Gate! I AM the Friend who gives up His life! I AM the Vine! I AM the Bread of Life! I Am the Fount of Living Water! Come and drink of Me! I AM the Alpha, and Omega! And I swear to you, Before Abraham was, I AM! I AM!" Verse3: They said, "We'll put a stop to this!" And they betrayed Him with a kiss, And they nailed Him to a tree For all the World to see. And they put Him in the ground With a squad of soldiers 'round. But He rose on the Third Day, As if to say, Chorus:
