He Was Heard Lyrics

Michael Card

Hebrews 4:14 - 5:10 & 7:11-28

In the days of old the priest would come

With a lifeless sacrifice

While the crowd in anxious silence

Would wait outside

As he entered in his temple

They hoped he would be heard

God would give them a tomorrow

And the priest would stay alive

Their only choice, their only hope

Would he be heard

Their only way they might be saved

Would he be heard

In the fullness of the promise time

The Final Priest did come

And He offered up a living sacrificeCard Michael - He Was Heard - http://motolyrics.com/card-michael/he-was-heard-lyrics.html

Now we His children wait for Him

With hope and joyful praise

For we know that God has heard Him

For we know that He was raised

He offered cheerful praise and He was heard

He offered up His life and He was heard

Chorus

So let us fix our eyes upon

The priest whom God did hear

For the joy that was before Him

He overcame the fear

Oh, once and all He paid the cost

Enduring all the shame

Taking up the cruel cross

Ignoring all the pain

Repeat Chorus
