Rebecca st. james lyrics hope's song lyrics

There’s a story that started on Christmas

When a baby was born in the night

And those who came far, who followed the star

Were seeing a heavenly sight ...

a heavenly sight.



Well the years hurried by, and the boy, now a man

Could make the blind see with a touch of his hand

He was born to be King -- he was Rabbi and Priest

But the best that he had, he gave to the least ...

He gave to the least.



He was born and he died, almost 2,000 years ago

He laughed and he cried, he felt all the fears we know

But what does it matter? A story so strange ...

Even if it is true, what does it change?

What does it change?



Well he spoke like a prophet -- like no one they’d heard

This simple young carpenter -- crowds hung on every word

He hated injustice -- He taught what is right

He said “I’m the way, and the truth, and the light.”



His friends soon believed that truly he was the one.

The Savior, Messiah, God’s one and only son.

But others, they doubted, they did not agree

So they took him, they tried him,

He died on a tree ...

He died on a tree.



God has made a way

for all who mourn and grieve

Death will never be the end

if you just believe.



There is nothing left to fear

nothing Heaven knows

For he died for us to give us life

and to give us hope He rose

He died for us to give us life

And to give us hope He rose.
