1. FROM ZION

Every living thing
Will bow down at his feet.
And every enemy
Will suffer their defeat.
Our deliverer has come.

This is war.
Our history has led us here.
Creation sings in celebration.
This is war.
This mystery's beheld us here.
He is the voice of liberation.

Now is the age of redemption.

Prophesized by generations past,
A redeemer for captive Israel.
Our Messiah has been sent at last,
To take the throne and shut the gates of hell.

We fight for justice; the war has just begun.
Our king has come now.
Now I see freedom - I see it rising up,
Like that star after sundown.

With a voice that shake the heavens,
And with words that calm the seas;
There is one the prophets told us
That the nations would receive.
This is what we've been waiting for.

Rise up.
Never again do we fight alone.
The promised one has come to set his people free.
From the ashes came our greatest victory.

This mystery has been revealed to the discerning:
The Lamb was slain.
The blood was shed.
Let death pass over us.
The sacrifice was made for sinners, undeserving.
Now we stand set apart to storm the gates of hell.

The fight for justice, it has just begun
Our king has come now.
Now I see freedom - I see it rising up,
Like that star after sundown.

With a voice that shake the heavens,
And with words that calm the seas;
There is one the prophets told us
That the nations would receive.
This is what we've been waiting for.

Rise up.
Never again do we fight alone.
Rise up.
We are the resistance.
Rise up.
Now is the time to rise up.


2. CROWN OF THORNS

We crown him with the crown of thorns.

This is the end of a life that's been poured out for all mankind.
In suffering, manifest glory has come at the fullness of time.
King of kings, beaten and broken down,
Why would He live like a servant?
King of kings, descending lower now.
Why should He die like a slave?

The proud will be humbled,
the meek will inherit the earth.
The last will be first do inherit the earth.
I know down is the way up,
so master, show me how to serve.
The last will be first do inherit the earth.

It should have been me
with the nails through my hand and feet,
facing the wrath of God.
It should have been me,
left to pay for my sin, forsaken.
But in the blood, I stand here.

Born to die,
he bore the fire of God's holy wrath on his shoulders.
Born to die,
I watched him pour out his life as a ransom for all.

And as he carried his cross on his back,
beaten and bloody,
I saw myself there, too;
because I've been broken by a world that hates me.
But I'm not alone anymore.
No one could take his life - he laid it down for me.
That twisted wreath of thorns,
he took that crown for me; then after three days,
out of the ground for me,
he overcame it all!
Now I live to serve him.

With stripes on his back,
betrayed by the ones that he'd loved so perfectly,
we spit in his face and we crowned him...

We crown him with the crown of thorns


3. FLESH AND BLOOD

I won't go back the way I came
There is no turning back.
I'd walked away from everything that could save me.
I won't go back the way I came
There is no turning back.
I once was blind, but now I see things clearly.
I'll never see the world the same way.
The words of truth within this man forever changed me.

Is he just flesh and blood,
Or is there more to the power I see?
Filled with the strength of God,
But he moves and breathes as a man, just like me.
When the spirit overcomes the flesh
You'll see one man with power over death.

So let me die.
And let the saints rise.
With hands like mine, he turned water to wine.
So let me die.
And let the saints rise.
With hands like mine, he gave sight to the blind
And he opened up my eyes

I won't go back the way I came
There is no turning back.
I'd walked away from everything that could save me.
I won't go back the way I came
There is no turning back.
I once was blind, but now I see things clearly.
I'll never see the world the same way.
The words of truth within this man forever changed me.

Break the chains that bind me.
Flesh and blood, filled with the fire of God,
Come break the chains of my bondage.
Flesh and blood, filled with the fire of God,
Deliver us from the darkness.

How could a man like me be a man that's so unlike me?
The words you say got me turned away from the man I might be.
My hands can build, but your hands can create.
My hands can help, but your hands can save.

I won't go back the way I came
There is no turning back.
I'd walked away from everything that could save me.
I won't go back the way I came
There is no turning back.
I once was blind, but now I see things clearly.
I'll never see the world the same way.
The words of truth within this man forever changed me.

The blind will see flesh and blood,
Filled with the fire of God.
Come break the chains of my bondage.
Flesh and blood, filled with the fire of God,
Deliver us from the darkness


4. OPEN HEAVEN

Open heaven
I see the glorious everlasting
Open heaven
Before my eyes, there is glory passing

It's what the rocks shout, and the stars speak:
Only one God reigns.
This is the day when heaven and earth meet.
Only one God reigns.

All creation knows his name,
And now I stand before him.
All creation knows his name,
And every heart adores him.

With eyes that burn like fire,
I found hope for the hopeless men.
I see heaven open wide, so let the hope arise again. (x2)

Even death has to bow down
At the throne of the king.
All hell has to bow down
Every nation will sing:
There is only one who is worthy.
Every nation will sing:
There is only one who is worthy.
I would give everything.

No matter what the cost,
I will follow him. (x2)

To seek and save the lost.
I will follow him.

God has come to his people.
God has come to this land.
So let hope arise again.

With eyes that burn like fire,
I found hope for the hopeless men.
I see heaven open wide, so let the hope arise again. (x2)

It's what the rocks shout, and the stars speak:
Only one God reigns.
This is the day when heaven and earth meet.
Only one God reigns.

All creation knows his name,
And now I stand before him.
All creation knows his name,
And every heart adores him.

I walk the narrow road,
And follow the one that can set me free.
I never have to walk alone.
This is my destiny.

I've found something worth dying for


5. FEARLESS (ACOUSTIC)

We will not,
We will not,
We will not be afraid (x3)

We will not
We will not
We will not

We are fearless,
Fearless

We bear the mark of the uncreated god
So what should we fear?
We bear the scars of the holy risen son
So tell me what should we fear?

Every threat is hollow
Because our victory is already set in stone

We are the fearless ones

We will not,
We will not,
We will not be afraid (x2)

Though we stand in this dark valley
We will not be afraid
For we know that you are near (x2)

You are near

I can feel the courage rising
In the hearts of the sons of god
I can feel a fire burning
Across the earth we stand as one

We are not dismayed by the darkness
That surrounds us here
Because we know that when all hell closes in
If we stand and fight we are not alone

Though we walk through the valley of the shadow of death
We are not alone
We will fear no evil for you are near

We are the fearless ones

We will not,
We will not,
We will not be afraid (x2)

Though we stand in this dark valley
We will not be afraid
For we know that you are near (x2)

You are near

He can't stop the kingdom
You'll see him bow at the throne on judgement day
So let the devil come

We are fearless,
Fearless

So let the devil come
