Spicedgold - Tetelestai Lyrics

A tale may be true or spun from thin air
But what of the Bible with its stories rare?
Could randomness pen such a grand design?
Or is there truth in every sacred line?
Jesus walked the earth his story's clear
His life his death historians revere
With heavy guard the tomb laid bare
Three days passed yet he was not there
Oh the Bible beacon bright
Shining through the darkest night
If not risen why would they dare
Risking their life to spread the message (everywhere)?
Knock knock knocking the question arises clear
Why should heaven welcome me why should I draw near?
For mere goodness or deeds of kind?
Or because I'm not as bad as some might find?
None can uphold the Ten Commandments with precision
They reveal our flaws our human condition
The Law of Moses its purpose true
Shows our need for grace for me and you
Oh the Bible the book so unique
Its prophecies and teachings of the truth they speak
A history without flaw guiding us to see
The path of life through eternity
From Eden's fall to a cross so bleak
He was the lamb the pure and meek
In his sacrifice the world was found
In his love our lives are bound
At heaven's gate if asked my plea
"Not look at me but look to thee
Jesus paid in full i'm free"
A gift of grace for you and me
Oh the Bible living word
In its message hearts are heard
If not risen why would they dare
Risking their life to spread the message (everywhere)?
