[Part 1 - Musical Prelude - Emaculate Conception]

[Part 2 - Musical Prelude 2 - The Imminent Messiah]

[Part 3 - Persecuted Quest]

[Luke 1 and 2]

We see the pain and glory of the Son of man

Virgin birth brought him for mankind

Heal the sick and drive demons from the possessed

Awesome to see, finally your plan

For mankind, your glory is revealed

Though some heed him, many cause him pain

The lost shall be found, in weakness they are strong

Those who long for life, flock to his side

where love is nigh

[Part 4 - The words at the supper]

[Luke 22:14-23]

Now what's this sudden word

What's he mean God when he speaks of death

Surely you would not subject him

to that of which he speaks

We cannot see what's the plan of this

He's shown your awesome glory to the world of man

They don't even heed it

You see the wretched sin, why send your son to die

If these words he speaks are true?

You are not answering us God

Please reveal to us your mind

Did you really send him to suffer and to die?

Take the wine and take the bread, he says

Do this in my rememberance

What is he saying? We won't let him die

We'll be there at his call, demons will not take him

One of you will betray me and one of you deny

we've heard him speak this way

Angelic presence, we must rise and attack

demons against the Son of man

Surely he will not resign

Surely he will not resign

Surely not!!!

[Part 5 - Angelic Sufferance]

[Luke 23:26-49, Luke 15, Luke 53:7, Mark 15:34]

Fear and terror fill our skies

Demons gather against us

In formation we rise

The power of God is with us

We wield it with force

The Holy Spirit is beneath us

but wait, what's this?

They whip him, they scourge him

with hatred in their eyes

They beat him, they mock him

tearing at his face

They've hung him, they punch him,

blood gushes from his mouth

Why doesn't he cry out, we are ready and waiting

to cut those people down driven by demons

Satan is prevailing, God He is not calling

God He is not calling, God He is not calling!!!

Frantically we return and gush through heaven's gate

Gabriel hysterical, order in your ranks

We turn to the Father, His face not moved

We cry out WHY! We can hardly believe

Lord, please commission us, commission us

Commission us, please, God!!!

We see the nails burst the holy flesh

with holy godly hatred we seethe against satan

The Son of man hangs, the blackness folds around

The Father cries and turns

NO!!! we cry out

What is this, save him we plead

Save Him, Save Him, Save Him!!!

Sudden silence, God hangs his head

In crushing pain we fall

[Part 6 - Angelic Resurgence]

[Mark 16:1-8, Revelation 1:12-18]

Myriads rise expectant

We look down with hope filled eyes

We cannot believe the sight

Alright! Alright!!!

Jesus has risen, He's come back to life

He's taken the keys to death and hell

Now we can see, sorry for the doubt

The death of Christ to save the souls of man

Oh God, what a plan!

Every knee shall bow, man will not doubt

after seeing His victory

Alright! Lookout!

Here comes the Christ

In clouds of grace we embrace

Total exhilaration on angelic faces

The Son of man has returned in victory over death

Yes!!! <i>[Lead solo]

[Part 7 - Frustrated Vision]

[1 Peter 4:12-16]

Lust and fear and hate and pain reign across the land

God, let us kill the ways, annihilate the plan

Wars, death, famine, aids, man accepts the pain

Only your saints prevail, renew, revive their light

[Part 8 - Please Tarry]

[1 Peter 5:8-9, 2 Cor. 10:3-6, Rev. 20:11-15]

The church is on the rise

God, the ones who know the light

We stand by their side, in affliction we fight

The demons work all night

They know the time is short, warfare in sight

But many more will come

We know the time is near, when Jesus you return

God we question You no more

But please tarry, more are coming

and your saints are faithful

The day is nigh!!!
