Night is falling now, blood is on the brow, free to run the
race Nailed to the wood, power in the blood, died in my place Common
legacy, common victory, free to run the race We're all pure in Jesus
eyes, running for the prize, mark of holiness Hall of famers who've
gone before us a hundred million strong And your faith in Jesus will
never fail you though the road is long And we're...
Chorus 1: Free to run yeah we're free to run the race (free to run

turning back Free to run, yeah we're free to run the race
Running through the rain, storms and rough terrain though on solid
ground We have guidance from the Lord, Devil's snares avoid running for
the crown We are casting off the weight, Savior's storms abate when my
faith is down You know life is in the death, free is every breath when
we choose the Son Live a life of holiness bought with a fearful
price And we're called to liberty, called a family, we're called to
sacrifice And we're...

Lord!" Free to run, free to run the race

Free to run (we are free to run) the race!
Scriptural Reference:
"Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses,
let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily
entangles, and let us run with perseverance the race marked out for
us." Hebrews 12:1
It's the showdown at Calvary, the Man is hanging in pain And now the
time has come to see which one will remain Hear Him cry, "Father,
Father, lama sabachthani!" As He waits for His time to come, when for
the world He would die
Chorus 1: I was the one (was the one) who drove the nails, my bloody
sword pierced His side I was the one (was the one) casting my lots as
the Lord Jesus died I was the one (I was the one) convicted and tried,
condemned to eternal death I was the one (I was the one) for whom the
Lord died breathing His very last breath
From the first till the end of time there can be only one Sacrifice
laid at the feet of God, Holy Messiah, the Son Father cries, Jesus
dies, walks through (walks through) hell's fiery realm (hell's fiery
realm) Purged of sin (purged of sin which was) which was not His own,
legacy of redemption beheld
Chorus 2: You know I was the one (was the one) who drove the nails,
my bloody sword it pierced His side Hey I was the one (was the one) I
was casting my lots as the Lord my Jesus He died I was the one (I was
the one) convicted and tried, condemned to eternal death I was the one
(I was the one) for whom the Lord died breathing His very last breath
Scriptural Reference:

sinners, Christ died for us." Romans 5:8 "He died for us so that,
whether we are awake or asleep, we may live together with him." 1
Thessalonians 5:10
As I stood there looking up everything grew silent My life flashed
before my eyes I tried to see how I even mattered Or why I ever
lived my life
(From the foot of the cross) I saw a man (From the foot of the cross)
who touched my life In a way that no one else could do (From the
foot of the cross) His eyes looked down (From the foot of the cross) upon
my face And His eyes said to me, "I did this for you"
I had to turn away because of my shame I couldn't keep on looking in
His eyes I heard His voice cry out, and felt His last breath And
then He died
I followed them as they took Him to the tomb I knew that it should
have been me If I had known what was to come Then I still would have
been surprised to see (still would have been surprised to see) Then I
still would have been surprised to see...
(From the front of the tomb) I saw the man (From the front of the tomb)
who touched my life In a way that no one else could ever do (From
the front of the tomb) He looked at me (From the front of the tomb) with
life anew And His eyes said to me, "I did this for you"
His eyes said to me, "I did this for you"
"I did this for you" (I did this for you, I did this for you, I did
this for you)
Scriptural Reference:
"For Christ's love compels us, because we are convinced that one died
for all, and therefore all died. And he died for all, that those who
live should no longer live for themselves but for him who died for them
and was raised again." 2 Corinthians 5:14-15
There once was a man who was born in Bethlehem, what a sight to
see He was a sinless God in human likeness, like you and me You see
He was the perfect plan to set us all free, this I know
Chorus 1: And do you remember there was a time when you had no hope
of goin' to heaven Like a shot in the dark there was a light and it was
Jesus Christ I'm going to heaven, to heaven, this I know
Sinless God was taken up a hill and nailed to a tree Well God's
perfect plan was carried out that day on Calvary Then three days later
He walked away and took the victory, this I know
Chorus 2: And do you remember there was a time when you had to face
sins consequences Then like a shot in the dark there was a light and it
was Jesus Christ Who destroyed Satan fences, this I know
If there's one thing that I know that assures my way to heaven It's
that Christ is coming back and He's in my life 24 and 7, this I know
If there's one thing that I know that I can tell you Christ rose
from the grave and conquered death too He's alive and this is true, and
He's coming back, this I know (this I know)
And do you remember there was a time when you had no hope Then like
a shot in the dark there was a light and it was Jesus Christ I'm going
to heaven Jesus loves me this I know (Hivi nina, Hivi na joua), this I
know (Hivi nina, Hivi na joua), This I know (Hivi nina, Hivi na joua),
this I know (this I know that) Christ, Jesus Christ, Jesus Christ,
He's alive! He's alive!, He's alive!, He's alive!, He's alive!
"And you, my child, will be called a prophet of the Most High; for
you will go on before the Lord to prepare the way for him to give his
people the knowledge of salvation through the forgiveness of their
sins, because of the tender mercy of our God, by which the
rising sun will come to us from heaven" Luke 1:76-78
Chorus: King of Kings and Lord of Lords glory hallelujah King of
Kings and Lord of Lords forever the same King of Kings and Lord of
Lords glory hallelujah King of Kings and Lord of Lords glory praise His
name
Repeat Chorus
Written through the tapestry of time there is a legend Of a man who
loved until the bride took His life Living in her broken world of lies
and deception As He takes her pain and sin, easing her strife
A call comes ringing out across the plain Telling us that Jesus
Christ is risen - Again (yeah, yeah, yeah)
Repeat Chorus
Found within society is poverty and hating When it comes to knowing
who the life giver is Sitting back in padded pews we're not
contemplating Going out to all the world and making them His
And so the cross it would seem was for vain (forever and
ever,forever and ever,forever and ever,forever and ever) Still the call
rings telling all He's risen - Again (yeah, yeah, yeah)
Repeat Chorus
Repeat Chorus (with below) King of Kings (forever and ever,
hallelujah, hallelujah) And Lord of Lords (forever and ever,
hallelujah, hallelujah)
King of Kings and Lords hallelujah (repeat with below) And He shall
reign forever, He shall reign forever He shall reign forever, He shall
reign forever King of Kings, Lord of Lords (and ever), King of Kings
(He shall reign forever)
King of Kings, King of Kings, King of Kings King of Kings!
Scriptural Reference:
"In the sight of God, who gives life to everything, and of Christ
Jesus, who while testifying before Pontius Pilate made the good
confession, I charge you to keep this command without spot or blame until
the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ, which God will bring about in his
own time--God, the blessed and only Ruler, the King of kings and Lord of
lords, who alone is immortal and who lives in unapproachable light, whom
no one has seen or can see. To him be honor and might forever.
Amen." 1 Timothy 6:13-16
My mind tells me one thing but my heart won't say the same When I
follow my mind it almost always leads to pain My heart is where the
truth is and it always leads me To the one who I adore, the one who'll
love me forever more There's no way (no I'm not on my own) that I can
make it (no I'm not on my own) On my own (no I'm not on my own), on my
own (not on my own)
I sit within the hand of my Father up above Who came to me to prove
all of His love He had just one intention to give eternity So hold
me close to your heart, don't let me go, don't even start To let go (no
I'm not on my own) I need your strength (no I'm not on my own) Although
I've grown (no I'm not on my own) I still can't make it (not on my
own)
On my own (no I'm not on my own) No one can help me (no I'm not on
my own) but Jesus Christ (no I'm not on my own) He is the love (not on
my own) love of my life
No I'm not on my own No I'm not on my own No I'm not on my
own Not on my own
There's no way that I can make it on my own There's just no way that
I can make it on my own

What happened to the dream we new Everybody having something to live
for Seems we've forgotten where we're going to And all the reasons

climbing higher and higher Let's build a bridge, take us across Hand

place So we can see the world for what it is It's not impossible to
break the chains There is a way if you'll take it
