You were half dead when you left The Way
Blood on your hands and hell to pay
Imagine your surprise on judgement day when he smiles that smile
Hallelujah! Let’s go to Jesus!
There’ll be drumming and dancing and it’s trumpet time!
You can hear him live with his band of angels!
You will remember your freedom and forget your crime!
You lost your baby. I lost my mind
The God of Heaven lost his very life
To see that all these losses are the closest that we find ourselves to Hell
Hallelujah! Let’s go to Jesus!
There’ll be drumming and dancing and it’s trumpet time!
You can hear him live with his band of angels!
You will remember your freedom and forget your crime!
Our bottled tears of sorrow, tears of shame
Jesus is holding when we meet him at the gate
But there are no tears in Heaven so he spills them while we wait
And laughs while flowers grow
Hallelujah! Let’s go to Jesus!
There’ll be drumming and dancing and it’s trumpet time!
You can hear him live with his band of angels!
You will remember your freedom and forget your crime!
Remember your freedom and forget your crime!
Remember your freedom and forget your crime!
