Since When

Since when does a king become a baby
Leaving His royal throne
Since when does the ruler of the nations
Come to this earth alone

Since when does the Lord of all creation
Sit down with sinners to dine
Since when does the pure and spotless Savior
Touch the leper and the blind

Only since Jesus came to this earth
Only since Jesus brought us new birth
Only since Jesus became a man
Only since Jesus brought life again

Since when does the Lord of all the armies
Become beaten, bruised and torn
Since when does the merciful Messiah
Suffer through the sinners scorn

Only since Jesus came to this earth
Only since Jesus brought us new birth
Only since Jesus became a man
Only since Jesus brought life again

And in the midst of it all He cried out and forgave them all
That forgiveness passed down to me as He hung upon that tree
Since when does the spotless Lamb accept me as I am
Since when does He make a way for me to enter heaven’s gate

Only since Jesus
Only since Jesus
Only since Jesus Christ our Lord
No other god paid the price
No other God gave His life
No other god has done what Jesus did
Since He gave His life for me

Only since Jesus came to this earth
Only since Jesus brought us new birth
Only since Jesus became a man
Only since Jesus brought life again

Only since Jesus
Only since Jesus
Only since Jesus Christ our Lord
Only since Jesus
Only since Jesus
Only since Jesus Christ our Lord

Center Stage

I was just a young boy when I first took center stage
I danced around a fire truck, my tap shoes were the rage
In high school I was on the crew that propped the final play
In recent years I lead my church to sing of amazing grace

I also was on stage with my wife many times
The spotlight was on both of us as we spoke out our lines
Some of these were musicals and we would sing our songs
The practices were tiresome and often were qui0te long

I see actors playing on the stages that do shine
In TV studios where the queues are right on time
I’ve been to concerts where those lights were bright
When the concert started, the worship out of sight

But the brightest stage of all was the on a little babe
A star shone from the heaven that shone upon His stage
Shepherds came and worshiped, kings from far away
That quiet night in Bethlehem when He took center stage

His whole life in the spotlight, all the common people cheered
But the leaders and the elders only looked at Him and jeered
They didn’t like this Jesus, they thought He was a fraud
They thought He was an actor, not the perfect Son of God

They plotted to destroy Him as His stage grew brighter still
The spotlight that was on Him, they thought was not God’s will
They made false accusations and hired to take Him down
Their desire was to take away this spotlight from His brow

They caused the crowd to cry out “crucify Him” in the street
The ruler of the nation had to grant their sordid plea
Then they beat Him and they bruised Him, the blood for all to see
A crown of thorns upon His head would mock His claim as king

They made Him bear His cross as they led Him up the hill
The nailed His hands and feet and all the crowd was stilled
Once again, He was the person that the brightest light was on 
Even though the skies went dark, the show had just begun

He was buried in a borrowed tomb and a stone the blocked the door
His stage seemed all but gone as they made the stone secure
Three days passed and all His friends thought His days were gone
They scrambled to find meaning in all that had been done

Then the third day came and the stone was rolled away
Once again, the Son of God would stand on center stage
He has risen back to life and ascended to His throne
The spotlight would be on Him now forevermore

Has jesus taken center stage in your life today
Have you made Him Lord of all?
Has He washed your sins away?
From now until forever He will be on center stage
Please come to Him today and taste of His sweet grace

Once

You once sat high on your throne in heaven
Then you came to earth as a babe
You once were laid in a lowly manger
Then the wise men came where you lay
You once grew up as an earthly son
Yet you knew who your Father was
You once were baptized by a fiery prophet
Then the Spirit came like a dove

You once taught masses about the love of God
Then the masses cried crucify
You once stood boldly against the leaders
Then they said that you should die
You once were beaten, bruised and crowned with thorns
You once were nailed to a cross to die
You once were stripped of your earthly garments
You once gave up your own life and died

You are the king eternal, and you always will be
You are the Mighty creator of all things
You are then Alpha and the Omega, beginning and end
Yet once you came to earth die for every man

You once were laid in a borrowed tomb
You once were sealed behind a stone
You once were captive in a tomb three days
But it could not hold you, it could not keep you
Then once the angel rolled the stone away
Once you raised right out of that grave
Now you’re back on your throne in heaven
And you will come back to earth one day

You are the king eternal, and you always will be
You are the Mighty creator of all things
You are then Alpha and the Omega, beginning and end
Yet once you came to earth die for every man

You once made water into wine
More than once, you gave sight to the blind
More than once, you raised the dead
More than once, you made lepers cleansed
More than once, you made dumb to talk
More than once, you made deaf to hear
More than once, you taught of God’s love
More than once, you said look above
Only once did you have to die
Only once were you crucified
Only once did you set me free
For all eternity

You are the king eternal, and you always will be
You are the Mighty creator of all things
You are then Alpha and the Omega, beginning and end
Yet once you came to earth die for every man

You are the king eternal, and you always will be
You are the Mighty creator of all things
You are then Alpha and the Omega, beginning and end
Yet once you came to earth die for every man

Once you raised right out of that grave
Now you’re back on your throne in heaven
And you will come back to earth one day


A Humble Act

I cannot think of Jesus without thinking of His birth
He left His heav'nly home to become a babe on earth
The worship of the angels was replaced by shepherds praise
As they laid Him in a manger filled with hay 
What a humble act
The Fathers love displayed 
That Christmas day

I cannot think of Jesus without thinking of His life 
He healed all those who came and made the dead alive 
He taught about the kingdom as He walked from town to town 
Authority displayed on earthly ground
What a humble act
The Fathers love relayed
To all who pray

I cannot think of Jesus without thinking if His pain 
They beat Him and they whipped Him again and again
A crown of thorns they placed as the blood rushed down His face
Carrying His cross in such disgrace
What a humble act
The Fathers will obeyed
His Son He gave

I cannot think of Jesus without thinking of His death
The nails were through His hands and feet He struggled for His breath
Father please forgive them came His plea before He died 
Then He gave His life for you and I
What a humble act
The Fathers grace came down 
Became our own

I cannot think of Jesus without thinking that He lives 
The stone was rolled away and His body was amiss
He showed Himself to thousands for death had no hold on Him
Victory over death and hell was His
What a triumph song 
The Fathers power to save 
Up from the grave

I always think of Jesus because He walks with me
Keeping me from harm through every stormy sea
He tells me that He loves me and His grace will cover me
He comforts me with His gentle peace
What a loving Savior 
What a faithful friend
Lord of all creation
With me 'til the end

With Every Breath

He gave up all His glory
To come to earth a lowly child
No pomp or royal feast announced His birth
His childhood was quiet
Though His parents knew His fate
They knew just who He was and His great worth

Then when the time was comes
That He should start to show Himself
He submitted to the baptizing of John
The heavens opened wide
A voice spoke loud and clear
God said Behold This is my beloved Son

For three years He did preach
And heal the sick and raise the dead
As He put the wisdom of the wise to shame
The people followed close
The leaders of that day sought ways
They could rid themselves of Him and all His fame

The plot against Him thickened
When He tore the leaders down
They determined It was time for Him to go
They riled up the crowds
They condemned Him in great haste
Urged the crowd to cry out Crucify Him now

He was whipped and beaten
Spit upon, a crown of thorns
Then they nailed His hands and feet to that tree
He cried Father God forgive them
As He bowed and gave His life
Taking all my sin and shame, He set me free

He was buried
Stone secured Him
The hope they had was dead
Then early Sabbath morning
The guards fainted in dread
The stone rolled away
He arose from that old grave
Victory forevermore
For His children, young and old

With all that I have in me
With every breath I take
I will lift my song of praise up to the Lord
His worship fills my heart
And flows out through my lips
Forever He's the one that I adore

In Your Place

In Your Place

Can you see Him
Bloodied 
Beaten 
Bruised
Nailed to a cross 
In your place

Can you see Him
Suffering
Sacrificing 
Solitary 
Taking on sin
In your place

Can you hear Him
Thirsty
Forgiving
Compassion 
Agony for hours
In your place

Can you hear Him
Cry out to God
Cry out to man
It is finished 
Gave up His life
For you

Will you trust Him
Give Him your life 
He gave His for you
When He died 
In your place

Will you believe 
Three days later
Rose from the grave 
Our lives to save

Come to Him now
Give Him your life 
Because He gave His 
In your place

With Every Breath

Have You Been

Have you been to the manger where He was born
Where shepherds and wise men worshipped the Lord
He came from His throne up in heaven above
To become a man and show us His love

Have you been to the river, Jordan’s the name
Where John was baptizing so many that day
When Jesus came to be baptize
The Father spoke up and said I’m pleased with Him

Have you been to the mountain of Olives to hear
The sermon of Jesus that challenged your ear
He spoke with authority as the crowd heard
How they could show love through the pow’r of the word

Have you been to the tomb where Lazarus lay
He was buried and gone for over four days
Yet He came back to life when Jesus had prayed
He walked out of the tomb and gave God the praise

Have you been to Gethsemane’s garden at night
The shadows are deep in the soft pale moonlight
It is here Jesus prayed not my will but thine
As disciples slept close by not liking the time

Have you been to the cross where He suffered for you
I can’t imagine the pain He endured
In agony He cried forgive them today
Then He gave His life freely and died

The sepulcher waited, the stone closed the door
But nothing could hold down my Savior and Lord
Three days later He rose, the victory won
Have you tasted His love
Have you asked Him to come
Into your heart to save you today
If you desire heaven there’s no other way

You say I can’t go there it’s too far away
I tell you I visit them every day
Just open your Bible and read of these things
Day after day new faith it will bring
