Trip Lee - Good News (Pt. 1, 2 & 3) lyrics

Right now i just wanna tell ya'll a story
Take you on a journey from my condemnation
To our redemption

Well let me tell you how it started
In the Garden of Eden
With sweet Adam and Eve
The first hearts beatin' (First)
God made them in his image 'till
They ate from the tree
And since then all men have
Been born as heathens
We have a sickness like people
Who can't beat diseases
It's called sin it deserves the eternal heat
(Yea) he gave us life
We can keep it i'll tell you the reason
But first let's get back to
The massacre at Eden (Let's get it)
The very first time man was tricked by Satan
On that date and that day
Instantly changed our fate
It was undoubtedly man's darkest hour
But Eve didn't have a chance
She didn't know his power
We probably would have failed too
If the choice was ours (Ye)
It's a dilemma that man alone
Can't get out of (We can't)
Cause our relationship with the
Holy God is sour
Yea we all fall short of him
Like He's tall as towers
Instead staying with the one
With the awesome power (God)
We steady chasing girls like Austin Powers
We're all left out in the cold
In a world that's crowded
With skeptics and doubters who want
To do without Him we got a problem (Problem)
We need something to solve it now
Cause we're separated from the father
And we're lost without Him (We lost)
We got a problem
We need something to solve it now cause
We're seperated from the father and
We're lost without Him (We lost)

Its the bad news, we were born in sin
The good news we can be born again
I said the bad news, we were born in sin
The good news, we can be born again
I said the bad news, we were born in sin
The good news we can be born again
The bad news, we were born in sin
The good news, we can be born again

So the world went on, sinnin' and all
(Sinning')
God even flooded it once to get rid of it all
(The Flood)
Time and time again all men would just fall
So God the Son decided to come
In the midst of it all
Look, the Word became flesh
To suppress our danger (Our danger)
He emerged from a virgin that
Would rest in a manger (Mary)
An angel had came to say
That she was highly favored
She became the mother of the
One that became the savior (Christ)
But a little bit before that amazing day
He called on John the Baptist to make the way
And when John saw Christ comin he
Told the men and the girls
Behold the Lamb of God who takes
Away the sin of the world he knew this
Christ had come for our survival
Soon after He would go to call his disciples
He would, guide them
Advise them to live by the bible
They were privileged enough to get
To walk beside Him (The 12)
And they preached to others as
He taught them the code (The code)
They always rolled together like
Tommy and Cole they were all nice guys
Spiritual cats
And they even got to witness His miracle acts
He fed thousands when they
Didn't have enough bread he healed blind
Even raised Lazarus from the dead
But, one day
He called them all to meet in a room and he
Sadly told them He'd be leavin' them soon
(Ye) he said He'd be betrayed by one
Of these in the room (Judas) but didn't say
He would die and raise in three from the tomb
Or that He'd be the one to
Clean us like a broom
Just so He could save you
And me from the doom

The bad news, we were born in sin
The good news we can be born again
I said the bad news, we were born in sin
The good news, we can be born again
I said the bad news, we were born in sin
The good news we can be born again
The bad news, we were born in sin
The good news, we can be born again

None of them knew that
He would be betrayed by Judas
One of the chosen the few
In His intimate group of
Close friends who professed love for
Him to no end (Man)
They were sad they knew life without
Him would be so grim
So Him and some of the disciples
Went to the garden of Gethsemane (Ye)
He told them to keep a lookout while
He prayed with all his energy (Man)
But instead of watchin' the King
Each time He came back they had fallen asleep
But the hour has come
Men proceeding armed with swords
(With swords)
The disciples didn't want to let
Him hard the Lord
But, Christ was aware that his
Father's will was in this
Betrayed by Judas Iscariot sealed with a kiss
(Betrayed) they took Him away
Judas couldn't look at His face
Think about what Jesus went through
Look at His grace
Put on an unfair trial it goes further though
They could have set Him free
But they let a murderer go
I heard it was so
Barbaric how they beat him and mocked Him
(They beat him) man that's God in the flesh
He could have easily stopped Him
But, He thought about us and not Him
He was crucified (The cross)
That's the most painful death
He was bruised, then died
(Yea) joseph wrapped Him in linen and placed
Jesus Christ to lay, put Him in a grave
They closed to tomb
Even put a stone in the way
But when the women came back
The stone had rolled away
He rose from the grave, it's great
He's rare with his grace
Redemption for Adam's sin and all
Who will inherit his ways
We just got to believe that
We'll be freed today
We should rejoice, make noise
Cause we've been saved from

The bad news, we were born in sin
The good news we can be born again
I said the bad news, we were born in sin
The good news, we can be born again
I said the bad news, we were born in sin
The good news we can be born again
The bad news, we were born in sin
The good news, we can be born again

Ya the bad new is that
All of us has sinned against this God
Because of that, we're deserving of wrath
But the good news is that god made way out
He sent his son Jesus Christ
Is die on the cross
For any of us who want to believe that
Accept Him and trust in Him
We can be born again and saved
And justified ye
My faith alone in Christ he's the only way
Ye
