Steve Riser - Jesus Roars Lyrics

Jesus wept
Quiet tears
Yet no regret
Would be His
"Take this stone
Away," he said
And raised his friend
From the dead

Onlookers stood
All bemused about
As grave clothes on
Lazarus came out

Jesus roared
Into the Temple Courts
And whirling round his head
A whip he'd made from cords
Driving out
The sheep and the cows
The men who'd made a market
From His Father's House

Jesus roared
Around the Outer Courts
Throwing over tables
Scattering the doves.
Driving Out
The grasping little traders
The men who made a mockery
Of His Father's House

Jesus drank
The cup of wine
The wedding party
Was going fine
Son of God?
Such a doubt
Then the wine
All ran out

Up came his Mum
With a small request
"Come on Jesus You can do your best..."

Jesus hung
Dying on the Cross
Watched by his mother
Drowning in her loss
Crying out
His lifeblood bleeding down
Naked skin all broken
In his thorny crown.

Jesus rose
Returned from fiery Hell
Flanked by two angels
He let the women tell.
Jesus roars
His roar is in your voice
All you do is follow
And build His Father's House

And He comes
In His time
In his place
With His love
With his Grace
Jesus Christ
Son of God
This is His Time
Yes He comes
In His time
In his place
With His love
With his Grace
Jesus Christ
Son of God
This is His Time and Place.

Jesus hung
Bleeding from the nails
Priests all went laughing
His mission having failed.
Crying out
As soldiers left their mark.
His final words all spoken
The midday turned to dark.

Jesus rose
Returned from lonely Hell
Grave clothes forgotten
And feeling rather well.
Jesus roars
His roar is in your voice
All you do is follow
And build His Father's House.

Jesus roared
Into the Temple Courts
And whirling round his head
A whip he'd made from cords
Driving out
The sheep and the cows
The men who'd made a market
From His Father's House

Jesus roared
Around the Outer Courts
Throwing over tables
Scattering the doves.
Driving Out
The grasping little traders
The men who made a mockery
Of His Father's House

Jesus.
