1. IMMANUEL (THE CHALLENGER)

Repent or Perish !


2. SAUL OF TARSUS (THE MESSENGER)

May the world know that I am yours
I will never be silenced
May the world know that I am yours
I will never be silenced

I will never be silenced

I will resist my sin to the point of blood
And I will wear my scars like badges of honor
But let my hope cry out that my God is greater than the pain of persecution

My God is greater than this world

There will never be another chance to live today for God There will never be another name that can save us from ourselves
And so, steadfast and undeterred
I will proclaim the name of Christ to a dead and dying world

I am not ashamed !

We will resist our sin to the point of blood
And we will wear our scars like badges of honor
But let our hope cry out that our God is greater than the pain of persecution

Blinded, I saw that Christ is Lord
Now, may the world see you through open eyes
God, my Father, reign


3. NICODEMUS (THE SEEKER)

Grace is my destiny, but pride is my home
Your words have called me from my comfort
I’ll give you my life, if you’ll hold it in your truth
Because truth is the pursuit that captivates my soul
And, teacher, to be honest
I am very afraid

This is all I have
I come before you broken
This is all I have
Tell me there is more than this

Jesus, I’d give my life for a truth that could never be shaken
And, then you came to offer me everything that I’d been looking for
So now, I am the reborn, into a life of purpose
I am the renewed; born of the Spirit, and sent forth to walk in truth

I will walk in truth; in all the truth of your miraculous power
I will walk in truth
And expect your healing hands to work in me.

You are all I have
I stand before you redeemed
You are all I have
I could never want more than this


4. JOEL (THE WATCHMAN)

Let the trumpet sound for the coming King
Thealmighty approaches!
Let the whole world see
Wake up !
This is really happening--the locusts devouring everything
The great and dreadful day of the Lord has fallen on the land
May you bear the mark of righteousness
We will not be forsaken
May your conviction stand to profess :
we will not be forgotten.

America, you will be judged, but His people will be restored
Fall to your knees but there is life at at the throne of god
You will be judged
Seek your mercy now, while it may still be found
Arise, take up your sword and choose your side
Tonight, prepare for battle
For the dream of God will come from the lips of children
and His Spirit will pour out onto all flesh
You will see the sun black out, and the moon turned to blood
Then you will know there is one God and the LORD is His name


5. IMMANUEL (THE REDEEMER)

You’re not alone, my son
I made you for so much more than this
Don’t be afraid, my child
for I have overcome the world
Go tell the world that I would die for them to know me
And I would die for them to live
And this is life: that they would know you
God, and Jesus Christ whom you have sent

This is life, child. I’ll give you everything
And you can stand tall for there is life in me
Now, let the blood I shed be just enough for you to know That you will always have a home with me--no
You will not be abandoned

All hell will not stand against us
For only those who choose to die will claim the life I have for them

So now the question stands : Would you die for me ?

Can you hear it ? Can you hear my voice ?
I’ve been calling you since the day you were born
To come home to the place I’ve prepared for you
You’re not alone


6. ELIJAH (THE FORERUNNER)

Prepare the way for the Lord to enter in
We must become a people who value righteousness again
Now, we can only stand back and hope to see Him move
Or we can be the willing hands of a mighty, living God
Make your choice
Now is the time
But, as for me, I call down fire
God, rain fire.

I believe that God will raise the dead
and He will use these hands to do it
I believe that God will heal the sick
And He has sent me forth to say : “He alone is God
Prepare for His victory.”

Lord, would you bring a breakthrough of heaven on this earth ?
Would you part the clouds, and pour down on our flesh ?
We invite you to come, not only here, but to the world around us
Surround us

I sought the Lord and I found His voice
The mountain trembled, and there was a fire burning
Then came the wind, and my God was not there
It was a whisper that brought me His voice
Because when heaven speaks to us
We will feel the peace of our perfect Father

Take my vision and tear down your world
Take my vision and proclaim a time of favor


7. BENEDICTUS (SONG OF ZECHARIAH)

[Instrumental]


8. EZEKIEL (THE VISIONARY)

An army approaches! Arise! Prepare!
This is the Word from the mouth of God
And in it’s power you will find life

We are the watchmen of the new generation
And we will stand faithful
As intercessors and as prophets
As those who call down the breath of God to fill the dead
Know they will arise
Prophecy: “Dry bones, claim your life”

This is the river of life, and it will flow from the place of worship
He is the giver of life and at His voice, the mountains will fall
But, I will not be afraid, for I am a chosen one of God
I will not be afraid, but I will stand for you

We will rise up, and we will stand prepared
And we will fearlessly defend this city
But, we will not stand alone
Holy Spirit fall, and breath your life into us


9. TALMIDIM (THE SERVANT)

Lord of glory, make us worthy to possess your name
Lord of glory, make us worthy to possess your name
And give us a new name
And call us your people, God
And give us a new name

Ezekiel 36:26-28 – “I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit in you; I will remove from you your heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh. And I will put my Spirit in you and move you to follow my decrees and be careful to keep my laws. You will live in the land I gave to your forefathers; you will be my people and I will be your God.”

Lord of glory, make us worthy to possess your name
Lord of glory, make us worthy to possess your name
And give us a new name
And call us your people, God
And give us a new name

Lord of glory, make us worthy to possess your name
