I wrote this back in '06, can't remember what i titled it but anyway it was for our art and music exhibition AKA Exhaustified. These are the lyrics, just thought i'd put it down for the record.
Verse #1
his amazing grace, his amazing faith
his overwhelming love is something we must emulate//
for he loved us so much... he died
and saved us from the grave//
yo give glory and praise to his holy name
let's lift him on high with our abundant praise//
for he accepted his fate, gave his life for ours in exchange
the game he has changed and the devil he's defamed//
salvation he has gained through his pain,
glory over sin our debt has been paid, life is regained//
the time is now, there's no asking how,
give it up one time for the kindness... he's bestowed upon us//
our lord who paid the cost... gave us a million dollar handshake
for the one most sacred cause...if not we'd be crosses that fill the landscape//
by letting us go, he became the scapegoat, as a result he was put on deathrow,
so that there wont be a second holocaust that we know//
Hook (X2)
one life he lived, one sacrifice
one heart left to bleed for the sake of our lives// (yo)
he paid the full price, he's jesus christ
he's all that we need, he's jesus christ//
Verse #2
rising from the dust that we were once made of
he didnt give a second thought about god's//
plan for mankind and the kind of death he would suffer
at the hands of the world's rulers... he was betrayed by judas//
to fulfill a prophecy, so he left behind a legacy
that men would have the ability
to reach out, build a holy community// (yo)
jesus aint like alcohol or ciggarettes
he gets you the same high without the side effects//
make it known step the pedal to the flow
switch your gears up like a bicycle chain, go out and proclaim//
make it happen, build a holy nation, for the benefit of heaven
in the glory of our talents....his holy creation//
