The Cross - Matt Osgood version

04 Amniotic Fluid

03 None Of This

02 Think So

01 Become Two

Christmas song for this year....a challenging production..! I hope it feels a bit Christmassy..

Title and some words (first verse in particular) heavily influenced by the poem of the same name by Elizabeth Jennings (1926-2001)

_______

He is so small
Yet all the stars bow down
Fierce winds are calm and still
The Heavenly host resounds

Awed shepherds stop and stare
Look on the perfect birth
And time itself stands still 
When grace comes to earth

The Word made flesh for us
The Prince of Peace Jesus
Sent down in love to live among the lost

Our sin is all undone 
Our victory is won
For through this child our God has overcome

Our sin is all undone
Our victory is won
For through this child our God has come
For Him all stars have shone
 
He is the lamb
Wounded with all we’ve done
Up on the rugged cross
The clouds arrest the sun

One final breath he draws
His passion shakes the ground
In three days he’ll rise again
And take his glorious Crown

For Him all stars have shone

The Cross Rough Demo NB VOX

You give us peace, a gift that flows from grace
You took our shame and suffered in our place
God’s own Son, sent down in love to us
Saving One, in You alone we trust
Your peace through grace, Your peace through grace

You rule the stars but wore a crown of thorns
You hush the wind and calm the mighty storms
At Your will our waves of fear subside
All is still, and You with us abide
Your peace restores, Your peace restores

You care for us and call us all by name
You take our doubts to break us from their chains
So we rest, released from heavy load
Fully blessed, with hope which overflows
Your peace sustains, Your peace sustains

You conquered death to salvage all our souls
You reign today, our brokenness made whole
Through the cross, Your heaven is our home
Saints we've lost are gathered round Your throne
Your peace consoles, Your peace consoles

You draw us close, to hear your voice alone
You send us out to make your glory known
Lord above, our constant through the years
Perfect love is casting out our fears
In peace we go, in peace we go
