ApologetiX - I Have To Die First lyrics

Risin' up that's what He said It's my time let's commence this In 3 days I will be back from the dead There's a plan to fulfill in the line So many times He talked in the past About His pa**ion and His glory Just like the grain used for weed has to die It must die so the wheat can arise He said I have to die first to fulfull all the signs Risin' up through the power of my Father At last when the hour has come you'll know I was right And I warned you before this day I'd Have to die first Facing d**h in Gethsemane Sweatin' blood feelin' lonely He prayed to God, "You can take this from me If you will", but He still had to die He said I have to die first in this terrible fight Risin' up through the power of my father And the last lonely hours I've been prayin' tonight And I want you to know this day I'd Have to die first Risin' up hate-filled mob Took our Lord up to Calvary Read His sentence and was nailed to the cross But the man that they k**ed is alive He said I have to die first it's a strange way to fight Risin' up through the power of my father And the last I will risin' put the devil to flight And I warned you before this day I'd Have to die first But I have to die first (x 6)
