The Story

The story
That changed the world
The life of every human saved
Condemned to sin but rescued by him
How amazing is our Lord

Came as a babe
Vulnerable in flesh
Crying for mother as we did once
Born in a manger
We find it strange For God to come
How amazing is our Lord

Prophesied in our books
Memorized and taught
That the Son of God will come for us
Did he not?
Yet in disbelief we stood
With faith the size of an atom
And ridiculed and scorned Him
In forgetfulness of the Word

He healed
He preached
He humbled himself
No blaspheme or pride left from his lips
Rarely did he claim to be the Son
Still we denied him to be the one
How amazing is our Lord

Fed up with his suspected charade
We crucified him
On the cross he laid
No begging of mercy
No cries of regret
He bore the punishment
He paid our debt
How amazing is our Lord

The 3rd day he rose
Yes from the dead he rose
And he met the men and women
Who followed him
Mary cried
Peter rose his hands in praise
As Jesus ascended from his grave
How amazing is our Lord

The story that impacted you and me
Is more than a story
It's history
Power unimaginable
Love unconditional
How amazing is our Lord
