Kings Kaleidoscope - One Righteous Man (Live) lyrics
[Kings Kaleidoscope - One Righteous Man Live lyrics]
All we like sheep have gone our own way
And distanced ourselves from our only help
One righteous man, God's perfect plan
To pay for our guilt
Tear down what we've built seeing His face
Nothing would catch you at all
The world that He loved, despised him
This man of sorrows
First He's betrayed, then taken away
His friends turn their backs and
Hang by their necks
Silent He goes, as one one who knows
Despite any plea, the verdict will be:
'Guilty as charged! Now
Beat him till no one can tell
Who He once was
Then hang up His body with nails!'
Surely up there, our sorrow He bears
See how He shakes, life slowly escapes
The King is crushed, collapsing His lungs
Showering the nations in blood
Yet this is the way His
Father has chosen to pay
One righteous Man has many
More righteous men made
And distanced ourselves from our only help
One righteous man, God's perfect plan
To pay for our guilt
Tear down what we've built seeing His face
Nothing would catch you at all
The world that He loved, despised him
This man of sorrows
First He's betrayed, then taken away
His friends turn their backs and
Hang by their necks
Silent He goes, as one one who knows
Despite any plea, the verdict will be:
'Guilty as charged! Now
Beat him till no one can tell
Who He once was
Then hang up His body with nails!'
Surely up there, our sorrow He bears
See how He shakes, life slowly escapes
The King is crushed, collapsing His lungs
Showering the nations in blood
Yet this is the way His
Father has chosen to pay
One righteous Man has many
More righteous men made
