He Cries

Riding along this dark dusty road We've been traveling for day, so far from home I feel Him move beneath my skin Entering through Bethlehem's door The inn was full so we'll rest on the stable Floor for the night, As my thoughts rage on The time has come for this perfect lamb To enter this world that He shaped with His hands On this silent night, He stirs within, oh I'm only a child, how can this be? Creator, God, was woven in me And as I look down, I am eye to eye With my Maker and Son, my Jesus Christ! He cries, He cries, my babe, my love, you've come My saving son The earth leans in as His song tears through this night The Creator of life is born ADVERTISING InRead invented by Teads I remember back to the time of His youth As He questioned the leaders and spoke only truth He was lost for three days, my helpless son Oh, I remember when He was brought to a child She had passed in the night and been gone for a while As He took her hand His words gave life, oh Now the same baby boy from the manger night Who still holds the world and brings dead to life Was taken from me, far from my care I watched my son crushed in agony He was beaten and dragged to Calvary As He's lifted high upon the tree The sin of the world now covers the King He cries, He cries, as His Father turns His face O my God, don't forsake me The earth explodes as it's Maker's blood drains dry Love has slain the Son, oh, oh Love has slain the Son Three long days, did He lie in that grave And death cried out in victory Until, until He rose up from the dead The grave couldn't hold Him He rose up from the dead The grave couldn't hold Him Couldn't hold Him He rose up from the dead Oh, the grave couldn't hold him, yeah And He rose up from the dead And He died, He died, He died my soul to save Now alive, alive! My soul's revived in You Grace has won! O death, your weight will no longer hold me down Christ forever glorified! Christ forever glorified! Amazing grace, how sweet the sound That saved a wretch like me I once was lost, but now I'm found Was blind but now I see I was blind but now I see Oh, I was blind I was lost I was hopeless without You
