Lyrics
What if the stars had no hand to place them
What if the cross was a story we made
What if the blood that the nails had taken
Was just another mans and hope would fade
What if the healer never touched the broken
What if the blind stayed lost in the night
What if his words were just empty tokens
And the tomb stayed sealed in the morning light
What if the sea never bowed before him
What if his crown was a crown of lies
What if the grave had the final story
And the son of god was just a man who died
But then the grave could not hold him the stone rolled away
Five hundred saw him in the light of day
The prophets foretold him the scriptures agree
From edens first breath to eternity
The scars in his hands the fire in his eyes
The risen messiah the lord of the skies
Every what if crumbles every shadow takes flight
Jesus is truth the way and the life
What if the gospel never crossed the nations
What if the martyrs died all in vain
What if the spirit never filled creation
And grace was just a dream we feign
What if the kingdom never had a future
What if the throne was a vacant place
What if the shepherd never called his children
And the father never poured out grace
But then the grave could not hold him the stone rolled away
Five hundred saw him in the light of day
The prophets foretold him the scriptures agree
From edens first breath to eternity
The scars in his hands the fire in his eyes
The risen messiah the lord of the skies
Every what if crumbles every shadow takes flight
Jesus is truth the way and the life
He is alpha and omega the beginning and end
The lion of judah the sinners friend
The lamb that was slain yet forever he reigns
The grave is defeated death wears no chains
What if he was not who he said he'd be
Then history would be hollow and chains not free
But the cross still stands and the grave still can't
Every knee will bow every tongue will chant
Jesus christ is lord forever and ever amen
