How can this be, this miracle
Why would the Father be so forgiving
What can compare to this love
Restoring life to a world that stopped living
 
How can this be that the creator of all
Who with all power and glory would do this
For a perfect creation which had sinned
This is a love which we cannot dismiss
 
That the All Powerful would love so much
That he'd send his only Son to the world
To enter a creation sadly gone wrong
Which into hades he could have hurled
 
Such an act is beyond our human minds
It is the essence and life of God’s love 
Embodied in his only begotten Son
Sent from the Father in heaven above
 
In the form of a helpless child
Borne of a spotless soul of his creation
In a form fully human yet God himself
To live and die to save all nations
 
And to earth his eternal Word
Jesus, his only Son, so it did begin
Who was sent and became One with us all
To live and die as God and Man for our sins 
 
Born of earthly vessel of perfection
Protected by earthly Father with love
Raised by loving Mother so pure
A blessing beyond us, from above
 
To become one with all of mankind
A Savior who would give us his all
To set us free from ourselves
That we could be forgiven at his call
 
Full of grace and truth in all ways
Born to teach and heal and forgive
To become God truly present
That we all could again truly live
 
Who would give his earthly all
To bring and to be love to man
Who had indeed endured a fall
As salvation for us all began
 
Dear Jesus 
God of all visible and invisible
Your love is beyond our mind’s eye
The creator of all coming to earth
To become, to suffer and to die
That we all may live

What Jesua is now telling us
Is not a welcomed thought 
That an end to all is coming soon
That is not at all what we sought
For we sought glory with him
He would become our Lord and King
With him we would have high places
That of he and us all would sing
 
Yet he tells of a frightening time
Like the stories in times of old
When all was brought down
In the times of fire and flood as told
 
We have followed and believed
All that he has taught of his Father
And look forward to his kingship
Yet for us all this should not bother
 
Yet as he tells us of the end times
We are filled with fear and doubt
For we all want to be at his side
When all this ending comes about
 
We must prepare if he is right
To be saved and to save each other
To assure we are the ones chosen
That we lose not one brother
 
He knows but will not tell us
That all will end for mankind
That many will be saved or lost
Oh that we not be left behind
 
Lord what can we do to assure
That we are in that number 
When the last day really comes
Of us we pray do not encumber
 
Dear Lord, help us to prepare
To be ready when comes the end
When sun no longer rises
And the time no longer matters
For neither foe nor friend
To joyfully join you and the Father
Lifted up by the Spirit of love
To our place with you above

Oh I’ve never seen him like this
His rage scares us and we hide
For what he does is so very bold 
This day we dare not even go inside
 
For the temple guards seem frozen
As Jesua rages in word and act
Challenging the merchants one and all
Yet none in defense can react
 
For the merchants profit and sin
In this, the very holiest of place
And have turned from innocence away
In this, God’s home and worship space 
 
We’ve never seen him like this
As with word and act he does rage
Against those who cheapen and profit
And for confrontation sets the stage
 
He’s right, we all know it
As the merchants and priests profit
At the expense of worshipers’ guilt
And all have lost the will to stop it
 
He is right of course, we all know
These things have desecrated this place
The house Jesus says is of his Father
As only prayer should occupy this space
 
What should always come first
Is that we prepare our souls and hearts
When we bring our lives to his house
Resolving a new life within to start
 
Destroy this temple and I will raise it 
Is Jesua’s loud lament this day
And in three days he promises
He will be rebuild to be forever this way
 
Dear Jesus, cleanse me of my distractions
Help me to always reverence you 
In my home and in yours
That I may approach your temple
Unworthy as I am with all I have
Myself, my heart and soul
To worship humbly in your house
 

Oh, that it would be true
That he is indeed the One
Sent to us from the Father
That salvation now be won
 
We have followed him for years
And we long to be with him
When the new kingdom arises
And our new life doth begin
 
We long for this last day
When we all will arise together
And with Jesua see the Father
With a new life lasting forever
 
While we fear the last day
We know with him and together
That if we remain in his love
This is a tie he will never sever
 
It is with a holy fear and longing
That we anticipate the last day
For as Jesua has so foretold 
He is the truth and the way
 
In Jesua we have seen the Father
Through the Son, have seen his love
For the miracle of Jesua is real
And we long for what is above
 
He has told us of that day
When we will all rise with him
To meet the Father and Spirit
That our eternal live would begin
 
Dear Jesus, I long for you
To be with you and the Father
Lifted up together by the Spirit
To sit at your feet in joyful bliss
Forever in the warmth of your grace
In eternal joy and thanksgiving
In that dreamed of heavenly place
