Kari Jobe Forever (Live)

Текст песни "Kari Jobe — Forever (Live)"

The moon and stars they wept
The morning sun was dead
The Saviour of the world was fallen
His body on the cross
His blood poured out for us
The weight of every curse upon him

One final breath he gave
As heaven looked away
The son of God was laid in darkness
A battle in the grave
The war on death was waged
The power of hell forever broken

The ground began to shake
The stone was rolled away
His perfect love could not be overcome
Now death where is your sting?
Our resurrected King
Has rendered you defeated

Forever he is glorified
Forever he is lifted high
Forever he is risen
He is alive, He is alive!

The ground began to shake
The stone was rolled away
His perfect love could not be overcome
Now death where is your sting?
Our resurrected King
Has rendered you defeated

Forever he is glorified
Forever he is lifted high
Forever he is risen
He is alive, He is alive!

We sing hallelujah
We sing hallelujah
We sing hallelujah
The Lamb has overcome

Forever he is glorified
Forever he is lifted high
Forever he is risen
He is alive, He is alive!

You have overcome
You have overcome
You have overcome
You have overcome

If there are words for Him then I don't have them
You see my brain has not yet reached a point where it can form a thought where it can adequately describe the greatness of my God
And my lungs have not yet developed the ability to release a breath with enough agility to breathe out the greatness of His love
And my voice, you see my voice is so inhibited
Restrained by human limits
That it's hard to even sing the praise up
You see, if there are words for Him, then I don't have them
But my God, His grace is remarkable
His mercies are innumerable
Strength impenetrable
He is honorable, accountable, favorable
He's unsearchable, yet knowable,
Undefinable, yet approachable,
Indescribable, yet personable
He's beyond comprehension, further than imagination, constant through generations, King of every nation
But if there are words for Him then I don't have them
You see, my words are few
And to try and capture the One True God using my vocabulary would never do
But I use words as an expression
An expression of worship to a Saviour
A Saviour who is both worthy and deserving of my praise, so I use words
My heart extols the Lord, blesses His Name forever
He has won my heart, captured my mind, and has bound them both together
He has defeated me in my rebellion
Conquered me in my sin
He has welcomed me into His Presence
Completely invited me in
He has made Himself the object of my sight
Filling me with mercies in the morning, drowning me with grace in the night
But if there are words for Him then I don't have them
But what I do have is Good News
For my God knew that man made words would never do
But words are just tools that we use to point to the Truth
So He sent His Son Jesus Christ as the Word, living proof
He is the image of the Invisible God
First-born of all creation
By Him all things were created, giving nothingness formation
By His Word He sustains by the power of His Name
He is before all things and over all things He reigns
Holy is His Name
So praise Him for His life
The way He persevered in strife
The humble Son of God becoming the perfect sacrifice
Praise Him for His death
That He willingly stood in our place
That He lovingly endured the grave
That He battled our enemy and on the third day rose is victory
He is everything that was promised
Praise Him as the Risen King
Lift your voice and sing
For one day He will return for us and we will finally be united with our Saviour for eternity
Eternity
So it's not just words that I proclaim
For my words point to the Word, and the Word has a Name
Hope has a Name
Joy has a Name
Peace has a Name
Love has a Name
And that Name is Jesus Christ
Praise His Name forever

Forever he is glorified
Forever he is lifted high
Forever he is risen
He is alive, He is alive!
