shai linne - jesus is alive (house of tea remix) lyrics

(chorus 1)

elvis is dead, pic-sso is dead
jimi hendrix and janis joplin are dead
marilyn monroe is dead- however…
jesus is alive

brando is dead, james brown is dead
princess di and john lennon are dead
biggie and pac are dead- however
jesus is alive

verse 1

give praise to king jesus, the blessed son
victorious, glorious resurrected one
to him belongs the power, glory and honor
ascended where he sits at the right hand of the father
at the cross he made atonement- his people he saved
after three days he was raised in defeat of the grave
by faith the elect behold him, his scepter is golden
he must have been hot or slippery because death couldn’t hold him
the spotlight is on today’s icons
in a thousand years, n-body will care- their light’s gone
but at that time, christ will still shine bright
he’s not in the limelight- he is the limelight
criminal minded, you’ve been blinded
looking for the body of jesus? you won’t find it
we never lack spirit, letting you cats hear it
because his tomb is empty like most secular rap lyrics

(chorus 2)

plato is dead, socrates is dead
aristotle and immanuel kant are dead
neitzsche and darwin are dead- however
jesus is alive

buddha is dead, mohammed is dead
ghandi and haile sel-ssie are dead
elijah mohammed is dead- however
jesus is alive

verse 2

throughout history there’s been mad religious leaders
prophets, preachers, scholars, teachers
but when it came to the grave, no one could climb out
that’s where jesus stands alone like taking a ‘timeout’
and don’t be mislead- i got a level head
no resurrection, christianity would have never spread
the disciples weren’t stupid guys who would ruin their lives
and then choose to die for what they knew was a lie
that would be beyond ridiculous- nah, the issue is
the risen christ seen by 500 eye-witnesses
imagine 500 people in a court of law
each of them taking the stand reporting what they saw
if their stories lined up and made sense
the evidence would have to leave you convinced
but still it’s by faith that we trust and praise the son
who was raised for our justification

(chorus 3)

nero is dead, constantine is dead
genghis khan and attila the hun are dead
alexander the great is dead- however
jesus is alive

napoleon is dead, lao tzu is dead
che guevara and henry viii are dead
saddam hussein is dead- however
jesus is alive

verse 3

through faith in christ, we’ve been saved from h-ll
because he’s risen, it means we’ll be raised as well
in glorified bodies fit for the new earth
for now, we partic-p-te in the new birth
the universal reality of the true church
with resurrection power, watch the spirit do work!
united with christ, we reside in his light
abide in his might, keep in stride as we fight
the pride in our life, the lies and the spite
we strive to be wise as he guides through the night
he’ll chide and he’ll slice- recognize that he’s right
his brightness inside lights our eyes and it’s tight
(he) decided to die to wash white all our strife
his life was the price to delight in his wife
he told death “sike” just to rise like a kite
all eyes on the christ- let’s prize him tonight

(chorus 4)

pharaoh is dead, cyrus is dead
darius and sennacharib are dead
nebuchadnezzar is dead- however
jesus is alive

caesar is dead, herod is dead
annas, caiaphas and judas are dead
pontius pilate is dead- however
jesus is alive
