BARREN CROSS LYRICS

1. Dying Day

Going down to the battle site where guns and bullets lay
To see the screaming wounded men, it's dying soldiers' day
Fight the yellows, fight the reds, shoot all those in sight
Fight the wars that were never yours, kill the world tonight

Dying day - for without the king, there'll be
Dying day - there's no use to look to see
Another way - talk of peace never ends
Dying day - but the blood sheds instead

Take your boots and here's your gun,
Take your lunch and wage
Here's a piece of ribbon if you're killed while acting brave
Hit the sirens, nuke the town, drink the acid rain
Peace will be here late next week, ups on train

Dying day - for without the king, there'll be
Dying day - there's no use to look to see
Another way - talk of peace starts the fight
Dying day - so the wars go on, that's right

Fill the shelters, clear the grounds, missile's on its way
No more time to change your mind, brother, it's too late,
It's dying day

Dying day - the king is the light, your only key
Dying day - there's no other way to see
Dying day - without him, you've just lost the light
Dying day - oh the king, oh the king was right

2. He Loves You

There is someone who wants to hold you
In his arms because he loves you
Let him enter your empty heart
Jesus fills you, just open your arms

[1st chorus]
Is there a hole in your heart
You can't seem to fill
You've tried everything
But it's empty still
Look to the cross
That's where your answer is
He's not hanging there,
He lives - the Barren Cross

[2nd chorus]
He loves you
He loves you
He loves you
He loves you

God loved you first, that's why he made you
In his image and likeness so
Your body is the temple of the spirit
When you accept him and you fear him

[1st chorus]

[2nd chorus]

3. It's All Come True

Then came forth the day
My life was taken away
I've been warned so many times
It's gonna all come true they say
I looked back at my past life
I rejected the one who came
To save us from this present fate
I must have been insane

I sit and think of a time
When I was once given a chance to receive
The love of god; but I spat in his face
I got up - began to leave
I went about my whole life
Doing my own thing when I pleased
If only I had listened
I would be bound for glory

The day of judgement has arrived
Now who's rejecting whom
How many times have you been told
It's gonna all come true for - for you
All come true for you
It's all come true

4. Believe

Listen son to what I have done
I have received, I have believed
See me now, see what I found
I want to shout, come and believe

Believe
Believe
Believe
Believe

Give it a chance, freedom at last
Yours for free, take and receive
Better than pot, Jesus rocks
Come and believe

Believe
Believe
Believe
Believe

You will find out joy will come to you
Take it, drink it, no fee, come and believe
Smoke on his love - believe

Believe
Believe
Believe
Believe

Chuck the past, do it fast
Could be your last chance to receive
Where do you stand, what's the plan
Take it, come and believe

You will find out joy will come to you
Take it, drink it, no fee, come and believe
Smoke on his love and you will see the rock - roll

5. Going Nowhere

[Prelude:]
Life is short so go and try - grab all you can before you die
Is this you - you're going nowhere
Someone came and died for you - but you just want your pleasure
You - you're going nowhere

Blowin' out your wheels as you rip on by out of sight
The people stare - you perform your dare in the night
You choose your fun more than God's own son, why do you run?
You'll go insane when the devil's name runs your guns

[Chorus:]
Going
Nowhere
Fighting
Jesus Cares

You're runnin' the town, messin' around to the core
Your life in in shrails, pleasure prevails in the door
Why don't you see, new life is waiting - it's free
God's love is here and He wants to free you and me

[Chorus]

Blowin' out your wheels as you rip on by telling why
'Cause you found that Jesus made you free
Now you see

Going
Somewhere
Heaven
You'll be there
No time
To waste
Soon we'll
See His face

6. Killer Of The Unborn (Live)

Lay her down, commence to drill
A primo murder, the legal kill
I am a child about to die
My mother does not hear my cry, no

[Chorus]
Killers of the unborn, killers
Killers of the unborn, stop the killing

Injection starts to work its way
I don't feel love, I just feel pain
I'm getting weaker, my poison blood
And death surrounds me like a flood

[Chorus]

The operation is over
I'm now in pieces in a garbage bag
Guilt will now take over
'Cause where is the relief you thought you had
The shame and tears she bears
The scar of guilt she is going to wear
But he can forgive her
If she gives her life to the saviour
No, no, they're gonna kill me
I don't want to die, just let me be
No, no, I feel the pain
I feel, I feel the pain, no.

7. Rock For The King

In the day of the white horse
Many will fly up to the sky
Heaven awaits those who live for the King
This is what I sing

Oh, the joy will rise when we see
The rider of the white horse
We will rock - for the King
We will rock
We will rock - for the King

Get yourselves ready to take to the air
Soon we'll be there - those who live for the King
We're rockin' steady
We'll never let go of the truth we know
And He gives you new life

Oh, the joy will rise when we see
The rider of the white horse
We will rock - for the King
We will rock
We will rock - to the gates
We will stand - stand up
For the King

Drink the water of life
And you will never thirst - no
Taste the laughter of joy
As it builds inside you

Oh, the joy will rise when we see
The white horse and...
We will rock
For the King
We will rock
Time is running out
We will rock
Shout it to the face of the crowd
We will rock
Let the people know - make it loud
We will rock
The kingdom is at hand
We will rock
It's time to make a stand

Rock for the King

8. Give Your Life

The bible says in black and in red
To turn from sin and let Christ in

Love, happiness and peace eternally,
All these things can be yours - for free

[Chorus]
Give your life to Jesus - He'll forgive your sins
Give your life to Jesus - just let Him in
Give your life to Jesus - you could do no wrong
Give your life to Jesus - He will make you strong

Jesus said He's coming again
The day is near,
Well, can't you hear the voice of

Love, happiness and peace eternally,
All these things can be yours - for free

[Chorus]

Give your life to Jesus
Give your life to Jesus
Give your life to Jesus

9. Just A Touch

We see the days
The world goes through a change
Miracles ever day

A man receives
He prays "God, take my life"
Now his eyes can see

[Chorus:]
Just a touch
Of His hand
And you'll be healed - you will

A hand is healed
A finger grows in place
A little of God's grace

A man walks
Not prisoned by a chair
God can hear our prayers

[Chorus]

A family lives
God can heal the pain
Divorce is just insane

His word is right
It takes away your pain
Call on Jesus' name

[Chorus]

10. Light The Flame

Here you are
So close and yet you're far
I see you falling
Your flame is lit no more
I'm always there, in time of your despair
When I knock, you're never there

[Chorus:]
Light the flame
Take hold and know my name
I love to give you all the love that's in my hand
Light the flame
My gift to you's been paid
Receive the King, His crowns await your stand

Does your guilt descend
Till you want the bitter end?
Are you so confused?
Can't you see you're being used?
I just want to make you free
But you go on just, fighting me

[Chorus]

Here you are
So close and yet you're so far
I see you falling
Your flame is lit no more
I can make you free, trust in me
Take courage - light your flame and see

[Chorus]
