From the recording THE MISSION
“For God so loved the world that He sent His only son, so that everyone
who believes in Him will not perish but have eternal life. God sent His
son not to judge the world, but to SAVE it. God’s light came to the
world, but people loved the darkness more than the light.”
- John 3:16-19
Creation looks forward to the day when it will join God’s children in glorious freedom from death and decay. For we know that all creation has been groaning as in the pains of childbirth right up to the present time. And we believers also groan, even though we have the Holy Spirit within us as a foretaste of future glory, for we long for our bodies to be released from sin and suffering. We, too, wait with eager hope for the day when God will give us our full rights as his adopted children, including the new bodies he has promised us.
- Romans 8:21-23
Behold! The Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!
- John 1:29
Lyrics
This war is a racket
But we try to grab it
We try mold it into beautiful
But this power we hold
Was never to hold on our own
So we try and we fail
Again and again
To build something without God
With our own two hands
But there's death and disease
And destruction down every turn
So this world is broken
But it isn't hopeless
All that remains
The cure for the hate
Comes down to love
And it's only Jesus
Only Jesus
The light of the World
Yes, He is the cure
Well this life is a prison and we built the walls
We put our bandaids on each bullet hole
And we pray for world peace
While we cut off its knees
For this life isn't where we’ll see it
So how many bad decisions I've made
Turned a ripple into a tidal wave?
And we scream out that God "doesn't save"
When He made the way!
And it's only Jesus
Only Jesus
The light of the World
Yes, He is the cure
Only Jesus
It’s only Jesus
Light of the World
So behold the lamb of God
That takes away the sin of the world
For you and for me
Oh I will sing His praise forever
What other King would die
To ransom every life?
The price for our pain
The cure for our hate
Comes down to love
So behold the lamb of God
Who takes away the sin of the world
For you and for me
Oh I will sing His praise forever oh
What other God would die
To ransom every life?
The price for our hate
The cure for our pain
Is Jesus Christ!
And it's only Jesus
Only Jesus
The light of the World
Yes, He is the cure
It’s Only Jesus (only Jesus)
Only Jesus (only Jesus)
Light of the World
Yes, He is the cure
Only Jesus
It’s only Jesus
It’s only Jesus
Yes, He is the cure
It’s only Jesus
Only Jesus
Only Jesus
… He is the cure
