Rock Medley - Petra

For so long I was depending upon

My senses and fences, I tried to ride on

And trusting in things that can never be seen

Was always a crutch on which others must lean

Thinking if I could see I would believe

Then somebody said believe and you will see

Sight unseen, sight unseen

You have to take it sight unseen

Blinded by the darkness only faith can come between

Sight unseen, sight unseen

In the heat of early morning on a hill they call the Skull

The roaring of the angry mob had settled to a lull

All eyes were cast upon the man whose hands and feet were bound

They watched him cry in anguish when they heard the hammer pound

They watched the bloody woven thorns with which his head was crowned

They watched the bloody cross of wood be dropped into the ground

The soldiers gambled for His clothes, they watched them win and lose

They saw the sign above his head that said King of the Jews

(It is finished) And the sky grew black as the night

(It is finished) And the people scattered in fright

The work had been done, redemption had been won

The war was over without a fight

It is finished

You can think of times when you had the right chance

You could make a choice when nobody could see

You could think of ways of defending your deeds

Justify the way that you wanted to be

Wait just a minute

Wait just a minute

Hey, did you ever think twice

Something inside says stay away

Hey, did you ever think twice

When there’s still time you can go the other way

Hey, did you ever think twice

If you don’t bother, gonna pay the price

Hey, did you ever think twice

The earth is shakin'

It’s like a bad dream

This world is crumblin'

Comin' apart at the seam but

I am on the rock

Everywhere i’m tunning it’s only bad news

This bomb is tickin' and we’re getting to the end of the fuse

I am on the rock

I am on the rock, the sure fundation

I am on the rock

I am on the rock, his revelation

Though the winds may blow

And though the floods may grow

I shall not be moved, 'cause i am on the rock

We wait since the day He ascended

He said He would come again

Some think it will be such a long time

Some they the know just when

We live like there’s no tomorrow

We wait with out lamps of oil

We watch for the midnight hour

The day we cease our toil

When the trumpet sounds and the bridegroom comes

The wedding’s gonna be so royal

So we gotta keep staying loyal

'Cause our feet are gonna leave this soil

When we burn the midnight oil

When we burn the midnight oil

Smell the burning powder?

There’s danger in the air

A voice from deep inside is telling you, 'you must beware'

Then enemy is watching

Every step you take

To find his opportunity in every choice you make

And it’s no game

When someone lives without His grace

And who’s to blame

When it blows up in your face

It’s a mine field — you’d better follow Him through

God knows the way — you’d better stick like glue

It’s a mine field — better stay on His heels

'cause the enemy kills and the enemy steals

So keep your head down and keep you eyes peeled

'cause life is…

Life is a mine field

Son of the morning — highest of all

You had so much going till you took the fall

Had a place in the glory but you wanted it all

Impossible odds but you had the gall

It seemed so unlikely that you would rebel

Such a worthy opponent that you knew so well

But you went down fighting when you heard the bell

Took a third down from heaven when you went to hell

This means war — and the battle’s still raging

War — and though both sides are waging

The Victor is sure and the victory secure

But till judgment we all must endure

This means war!

(It is finished) And the sky grew black as the night

(It is finished) And the people scattered in fright

The work had been done, redemption had been won

The war was over without a fight

It is finished
