From Bethany He called out, “I am not the one you are waiting for, I am not the one who is to come” On the banks of the Jordan, you find a man dressed camel-hair Who testifies for another, who testifies for another In Him was life, and that life was the light of man And that light shines in the darkness Though we have not understood Who is this man? Are you the prophet? Are you Elijah? What do you say about yourself? What do you say about yourself? He became flesh, and he walked here among us And with His father’s glory, brought grace and truth I am the voice calling out in the desert In Him was life, and that life was the light of man And that light shines in the darkness, though we have not understood Lord, help us understand (Lord, will you help us understand)

Wide is the road that I walk on Narrow is the road I say I’m on The Son of Man made His way back down To find his home was full of liars and thieves Just like me, just like me Please, oh please let me be You’ve wrecked this heart in me Please oh please let me be You’ve wrecked this heart in me My mind has married the martyr in me And my soul is blacker than it should be And I pretend I’m on my knees, when I Stand with the masses that don’t understand Please, oh please let me be You’ve wrecked this heart in me Please oh please let me be You’ve wrecked this heart in me On and on it goes, just give me three days and I’ll go Just give me three days and I’ll know On and on it goes, just give me three days and I’ll know Just give me three days and I’ll go

I’ve been down this road before (Rescue is locked by the door) As I wait for the sun to rise (I’m trying to help, I’m trying to come) I lose hope in the dark of night (Please hold on, we can make this right) Don’t pretend I haven’t tried Don’t pretend it’s always gonna be this way I’m not leaving you, I’m not leaving you alone It seems that nothing can fill this void The cup that I fill has been emptied again When will the stability stay and something of substance hold? It seems that nothing can fill this void The cup that I fill won’t be emptied again When will my stability stay and my message hold? Don’t pretend I haven’t tried Don’t pretend it’s always gonna be this way I’m not leaving you, I’m not leaving you, I’m not leaving you, I’m not leaving you alone

As dark as the night are the clouded minds around me My words pierce the blackened-sky that falls now And draws the harshest lines Let the anchor fall now Let the anchor fall now If you take some, you must take it all If you take some, you must take it all Remove the veil that covers your eyes He said, “My flesh is real food and my blood is real drink” Remain in me. Are you crazy? Are you crazy? If you take some, you must take it all If you take some, you must take it all Many have walked away Will you leave me too? Many have walked away Go and leave me too Lord, to whom shall we go? Your word is eternal life

I see You, opening up all my wounds I see You, opening up all my wounds Opening up all the things I hide There you go, everything I’ve done Everyday I hear what I am not I hear the saddest voices Telling me I’m nothing Then you come, like the morning sun Then you say, ‘While I am in this world, I am the light of it’ ‘While I am in this world, I am the light of it’ You are the light You are the light Hallelujah You are the light of the world You are the light of the world

We wait for your reply I wish that time could do the same Where have you been? And why have we waited for so long for you to come Stay with me some more Let me feel you in Sharing in my pain You came three days too late I wish I could have done something Anything for him Where have you been? And why have we waited for so long? Stay with me some more Let me feel you in Sharing in my pain Your faithfulness carries me through this Your faithfulness carries me

There were times when we were closer, When I wore younger man’s clothes You the vine and I the branches Keep me close, ‘cus I feel far too gone Keep me by Your side Keep me by Your side The same love that flows in these veins Is the same love that flows in Jesus Remain in me And I in You And I in You

Well I had my doubts, When we began to run And when she said, “Oh, they’ve taken Him. Oh, they’ve taken my Lord away from here” I got there first, with Peter close behind And we examined all that wasn’t there Woman, why do you cry? (Oh, they’ve taken Him) Mary, (Oh my Lord) Go and tell them I’m alive He’s alive, my God! I’ve seen Him! He’s alive, the tomb was empty There is hope in calling your name There is joy that flows through these veins

Jesus did many other things as well And if every one of them were written down, I suppose that even the whole world Would not have enough room for the books that would be written
