David Crowder Band - Secret Ambition lyrics
rate meYoung man up on the hillside<br />
Teaching new ways<br />
Each word winning them over<br />
Each heart, a kindled flame<br />
<br />
Old men watch from the outside<br />
Guarding their prey<br />
Threatened by the voice of the paragon<br />
Leading their lambs away<br />
Leading them far away<br />
<br />
Nobody knew His secret ambition<br />
Nobody knew His claim to fame<br />
He broke the old rules steeped in tradition<br />
He tore the Holy Veil away<br />
<br />
Questioning those in powerful position<br />
Running to those who called His name<br />
(But)<br />
Nobody knew His secret ambition<br />
Was to give His life away<br />
<br />
His rage shaking the temple<br />
His word to the wise<br />
His hand healing on the seventh day<br />
His love wearing no disguise<br />
<br />
Some say death to the radical<br />
He's way out of line<br />
Some say praise be the miracle<br />
God sends a blessed sign<br />
A blessed sign for troubled times<br />
<br />
Nobody knew His secret ambition<br />
Nobody knew His claim to fame<br />
He broke the old rules steeped in tradition<br />
He tore the Holy Veil away<br />
<br />
Questioning those in powerful position<br />
Running to those who called His name<br />
(But)<br />
Nobody knew His secret ambition<br />
Was to give His life away<br />
<br />
No, no, no, no<br />
I tell you, nobody knew<br />
Until he gave his life away
