I never knew a man
Who would give his life for me
I never knew a man

No greater love than this

His Name is Jesus
My Lord and Savior
His Name is Jesus
My Rock, my Sword, and Shield

Jesus, Jesus
Jesus, Jesus
In Him dwelleth the fullness (Jesus)
Of the Godhead bodily (Jesus)
He is the image (Jesus)
Of the invisible God (Jesus)
Our Sabbath, our rest (Jesus)
The Word made flesh (Jesus)
Prophet, Priest, and King (Jesus)
Unto You we sing (Jesus)
In Him dwelleth the fullness (Jesus)
Of the Godhead bodily (Jesus)
He is the image (Jesus)
Of the invisible God (Jesus)
Our Sabbath, our rest (Jesus)
The Word made flesh (Jesus)
Prophet, Priest, and King (Jesus)
Unto You we sing (Jesus)

Jesus, Teacher, Rabbi
With authority He spake parables that enlightened our eyes
Jesus, taught the pearl of great price
Marriage feast, mustard seed, so accurate and precise
Jesus, taught the seed and the sower
Filled with hidden treasures, vineyard and laborer

[Chorus]
(Jesus) He's the Lion and the Lamb
(Jesus) He's the Great I Am
(Jesus) From the dead He’s raised
(Jesus) Exalted and praised
(Jesus) He reigns forever
(Jesus) There will never be another
(Jesus) Yeshua Hamashiach
(Jesus) The Way, Truth, and Life

[Verse 2]
Jesus
Said blessed are they who hunger
And thirst after righteousness
For they shall be filled
Jesus
Said to the world you're a light
Shining in the darkness
A city on a hill
Jesus
Taught us how to pray
Our Father which art in Heaven
Hallowed be Thy name
(Jesus) He's the Lion and the Lamb
(Jesus) He's the Great I Am
(Jesus) From the dead He's raised
(Jesus) Exalted and praised
(Jesus) He reigns forever
(Jesus) There will never be another
(Jesus) Yeshua Hamashiach
(Jesus) The Way, Truth, and Life

[Verse 3]
Jesus
Miracle Worker
To the winds and the waves He said, "Peace, be still"
Jesus
Like blind Bartimaeus
The deaf, the lame, and the lepers He healed
Jesus
The daughter of Jairus
The widow son and Lazarus He raised from the dead

[Verse 4]
Jesus
Betrayed with a kiss
Sentenced to die, by Peter three times denied
Jesus
Beaten at the whipping post
Hangs on a cross
The disciples scatter when He needed them the most
Jesus
Declares it is finished
Into Your hands I commit my Spirit
Jesus
Descends into Hell
Confronts principalities and Lucifer who fell
Jesus
Takes the keys of death, hell and the grave
Setting captives free
Releasing the slaves
Jesus
On the third day He got up
With all power in His hands

(Jesus) Alpha
(Jesus) Omega
(Jesus) Beginning
(Jesus) And the End
(Jesus) Which was
(Jesus) And is
(Jesus) Is to come
(Jesus) Almighty
(Jesus) The first
(Jesus) The last
(Jesus) Alive forevermore
(Jesus) The King of kings
(Jesus) The Lord of lords
