Andrew Peterson - Hosanna lyrics
[Andrew Peterson - Hosanna lyrics]
I am tangled up in contradiction
I am strangled by my own two hands
I am hunted by the hounds of addiction
Hosanna, Hosanna
I have lied to everyone who trusts me
I have tried to fall when I could stand
I have only loved the ones who love me
Hosanna, Hosanna
O Hosanna! See the long-awaited King
Come to set His people free
We cry O Hosanna!
Come and tear the temple down
Raise it up on holy ground hosanna, Hosanna
I have struggled to remove this raiment
Tried to hide every shimmering strand
I contend with these ghosts and
These hosts of bright angels hosanna!
I have cursed the man that You have made me
I have nursed the beast that
Bays for my blood
Oh, I have run from the One who would save me
Save me, Hosanna, Hosanna
O Hosanna! See the long-awaited King
Come to set His people free
We cry O Hosanna!
Won't you tear the temple down
Raise it up on holy ground hosanna, Hosanna
Hosanna, Hosanna
We cry for blood
And we take Your life, Hosanna
We cry for blood and we take Your life
It is blood it is life that You have given
You have crushed beneath Your
Heel the vile serpent
You have carried to the grave the black stain
You have torn apart the temple's holy curtain
You have beaten Death at Death's own game
Hosanna
O Hosanna! Oh, hail the long-awaited King
Come to set His people free
We cry O Hosanna!
Won't you tear this temple down?
Raise it up on holy ground o Hosanna!
I will lift my voice and sing
You have come and washed me clean
Hosanna, Hosanna hosanna, Hosanna
O Hosanna! Hosanna
I am strangled by my own two hands
I am hunted by the hounds of addiction
Hosanna, Hosanna
I have lied to everyone who trusts me
I have tried to fall when I could stand
I have only loved the ones who love me
Hosanna, Hosanna
O Hosanna! See the long-awaited King
Come to set His people free
We cry O Hosanna!
Come and tear the temple down
Raise it up on holy ground hosanna, Hosanna
I have struggled to remove this raiment
Tried to hide every shimmering strand
I contend with these ghosts and
These hosts of bright angels hosanna!
I have cursed the man that You have made me
I have nursed the beast that
Bays for my blood
Oh, I have run from the One who would save me
Save me, Hosanna, Hosanna
O Hosanna! See the long-awaited King
Come to set His people free
We cry O Hosanna!
Won't you tear the temple down
Raise it up on holy ground hosanna, Hosanna
Hosanna, Hosanna
We cry for blood
And we take Your life, Hosanna
We cry for blood and we take Your life
It is blood it is life that You have given
You have crushed beneath Your
Heel the vile serpent
You have carried to the grave the black stain
You have torn apart the temple's holy curtain
You have beaten Death at Death's own game
Hosanna
O Hosanna! Oh, hail the long-awaited King
Come to set His people free
We cry O Hosanna!
Won't you tear this temple down?
Raise it up on holy ground o Hosanna!
I will lift my voice and sing
You have come and washed me clean
Hosanna, Hosanna hosanna, Hosanna
O Hosanna! Hosanna
