Lyrics The Cross Movement

The Cross Movement

Lord

[The Pilgrim]

Lord Jesus You're the King

And You reign over everything

Nothing is impossible to You not even anything

Forever never perishing

You're beauty never blemishing

You are the song that we sing

when we're worshipping

You're word is nourishing

and You're kingdom ever flourishing

Eternal never finishing, never ever diminishing

I'm relishing my relationship I'm daily cherishing

Through fellowship my thirsty soul You're replenishing

Lord, because You're just sin and lust You'll be punishing

Astonishing, how man rejects the admonishing

But knees will be knocking, hard nuts will be cracking and trembling

All high heels You'll be leveling

Mans long list of short comings

You'll be measuring and threatening

Over drawn accounts You'll be settling

Prodigal sons and lost souls

You'll be beckoning and tethering

And then will welcome them into the bretherin

[E'Miner]

Lord release Your power from on high through our lives

coz when we grip the mic we want to drop this right

we bring our bodies as a living sacrifice

that the deaf ears might be opened

and the blind receive their sight, and recognize

the way that they can identify

with You the Christ who Died

so that we could come into the light

and realise that You took away our sin

the way to You is open we can now freely come within

You're Holy veil

Lord, no more livin stale,

Lord, we can know You for ourselves for real

Lord and be secure in who You are

in everything we do worship

You and know that we is cool

that's why we, want to state plainly

the liberty that You have given us by You sovereignty

gratefully received

Cross Movement and MOD merge together as one like melody and harmony

a Godly symphony

sounding out the ghetto liturgy

globally, we bring encouragement to all You're family

faithfully, we want to serve You side by side with sword and trowel

till before You're throne on both our bended knees we take our bow

[Chorus]

Lord we declare humbly that You are here

We recognize ya

We raise our praise to Your name

Hallelujah

We come to represent You with no shame

because we love ya

There's nobody else who is above ya

[The Pilgrim]

Lord I thank You that to us Gentiles

who sat in the darkness You brought us light

through Christ

no less, sitting in the shadow of death

Lord this world is a mass grave

a tomb headed for doom, give me room

spreading from the left to the right

no depth or no height

holding forth the word of life yo

takin this game to the street, kicking tradition to the kerb

enlightening those who never heard bringing the word

faithfully spittin the truth, we're cuttin them loose

the sceptics providin them proof yo

we aint timid and scared, we're fully prepared

we're ready and keen 1Peter 3:15

me and my team

hit targets and getting annoyed

while The Word of God is accurate it never returns void

and if you're looking for Guns we ain't carryin

but I've got a Bible and some tracks in my hand you understand

[E'Miner]

Lord People wrestle You and try to fling You off like Dr Spock

Instead of gripping You like Jacob

Truly You are in this place and they know it not

like Clarke Gable, Frankly my dear the mans don't give a... what!?!

Do they know not

that they're headed for that hot spot

and when their flesh rots

they will still be burning non-stop?

We try to reason, but they treat us like we're talkin treason

wanning (going on) like they is the cream of the crop

so we use the hip-hop

to preach non-stop

rinse the Bible from bottom to top

Blaze the Word till we drop

because we can't stop makin it clear

that You are here and You truly care

and our burdens You'll truly bare

but beware because we know

You're judgement is drawin near

if we turn from sin, You'll bring us in

out of despair

You made the way clear

yet it does makes You're heart bleed

to see the gals dem bunnin the weed

driven by greed, mans out sowin wild seed

yet more wild flowers a breed

when will the people take heed

tell me when will the people them see

Lord You're here full of Grace and Mercy

us Your keen to receive

Tell me when will the people them see, Lord

You're here and You're wrath is ready if we refuse to believe

[Chorus]
