Tinie Tempah Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I am the resurrection, I am eternal life
All who believe in me will never die
I am the resurrection, eternal life,
All who believe will live forever

I am the resurrection and the life
And I ask you now do you believe in me
I am the son of god, believe in Christ

Who lays down his life for the world

You should not be surprised,
When all the world despises you
For the world despised the son of god
And he has been raised up.

I am the resurrection, I am eternal life
All who believe in me will never die

I am the resurrection, eternal life,
All who believe will live forever
