about

Simple Gospel message with a little help from hymn writer Samuel Crossman and fellow leader Anji Gregg.

lyrics

Twisted thorns, a mocking crown, Symbol of a fallen earth.
Son of Man, you came down, To raise us up by breaking Eden’s curse

A purple robe, a mocking sign, Symbol of our Heavenly King
Royal blood, from David’s line, Our High Priest forever reigning; you are reigning

When all is said, when all is done
The battle fought and the victory won
O who am I, that for my sake, you would take frail flesh and die

A whipping post, a cross of wood, Symbols of the world’s rejection
But there’s salvation in your blood, and there is triumph in your resurrection

With your last breath, the earth, it shook and trembled
The powers of darkness in the air assembled
Skies darkened as Satan crumbled
Tombs were opened as the thunder rumbled
Sweet Victory
O what a mystery
That you would die for me, My light in the darkness
