Roll Away the Stone


	LYRICS TO ROLL AWAY THE STONE

Have you heard about the wise men, they journeyed over dry dessert ground
Then they began to say:

CHORUS

Come on lets celebrate; Come on and celebrate;
Come on lets celebrate; Come on and celebrate

When the boy got older He traveled from place to place
Said His name was Jesus, Son Of Man and spoke about God’s amazing grace
Miracles He performed; said that “All it took was trust and faith.”
He died and rose again, took all of mankind’s sin
And then He began to say:

CHORUS

Do you remember the story about the footprints in the sand?
Ya know He carries us, one step at a time, until were finished with the Master’s plan
One day He’ll come back again, just around the judgment day
With angels all around, ridin’ on a cloud
And this is what you’ll hear Him say:

CHORUS

Gotta get back, I gotta get back into Your love, sweet Jesus
Gotta get back, I gotta get back into Your love, Lord have mercy
Gotta get back, I gotta get back into Your love, sweet Lord of mine
Gotta get back, I gotta get back into Your love

Breakin’ open this heart of mine, I’ m gonna let Your love in and let it
shine, shine, sweet Lord have mercy, I’ m open up to You

Got to say You’ ve got a hold on me, I’ m gonna let You shine
for everyone to see, sweet Lord have mercy, I’ m open up to You

(BRIDGE)

Not gonna fake it!
I’ m gonna take it!
Your sweet Love I’m gonna squeeze and hold
Know it’ s mine I’ m never lettin’ go

I won’ t refuse it!
Or abuse it!
I gotta get back, get back in Your love.

My life in Jesus
No more the same
My life in Jesus
Not just one day
My life in Jesus
The Life, the Way

My life in Jesus
A transformed heart
My life in Jesus
New life can start
My life in Jesus
Not just one day
My life in Jesus
The Life, the Way

My life in Jesus
Kingdom Divine
Life without ending
Life for all time
My life in Jesus
Not just one day
My life in Jesus
The Life, the Way

Life can be tough sometime it's hard to live
You're barely hangin' on with all you give
The misery you feel it's all you own
The lamp looks dim and you're all alone

I'm not gonna' turn away
You know I'm gonna get down and pray
I'll get the power to roll away this stone
Through Jesus Christ's name and just that alone

Jesus! Jesus!
Come and rescue me!
Jesus! Jesus!
The walls have fallen and now I see. You are, you are my salvation

You keep on tryin'; but it's not enough
Sometimes you feel just like given' up
The load gets heavy and you're feelin' lost
You come to terms that it's another cross

I'm not gonna' turn away
You know I'm gonna get down and pray
I'll get the power to roll away this stone
Through Jesus Christ's name and just that alone

Jesus! Jesus!
Come and rescue me!
Jesus! Jesus!
The walls have fallen and now I see. You are, you are, my redemption

Please give me strength enough to carry on
And bare the weights that seem to have me bound
Not gonna try to do it by myself
I'll wait for you ... I'm waitin' for your help

I know I'm not alone, you're always here
It's just sometimes I can not break this fear
I need your help, can't do it on my own
I need your help to roll away the stone

Jesus! Jesus!
I'm no longer feelin' down
Jesus! Jesus!
No fears illusions for I have found
You're embraced within, and are, you are my salvation,

My salvation
My sweet salvation
The promised salvation
Forever more!

Come Holy Spirit
Fill me completely
Pure love, devotion
I burn inside
Act of contrition
As the sadness dies, away

(CHORUS)

* New life's awaiting
   I hear your call
   My soul Rejoices
   With song most high, most high

Come Holy Spirit
God's love in motion
Enter in freely
The door's unbarred
Come sit at my table
I'm wanting for you, for you

(CHORUS)

Come Holy Spirit
Love, Sanctifier
Soul of all souls
Life of all life
Descending from heaven
You bring the Light of God

(CHORUS)

Come Holy Spirit
God's Holy Fire
Pure love, devotion
I burn inside
Act of contrition
As the sadness dies, away

Oh I love you Jesus
You are the Fire my Light
I love you Jesus
My Lord my love my life

I adore you Jesus
You are the dawns new light
What more can this heart say
My Lord my Love my life

Oh I love you Jesus
You are the Fire the Light
I love you Jesus
My Lord my love my life
Come fill me Holy Spirit
You are the Bread of Life
Through You my soul found peace
My Lord my Love my life

There's no need to cry again
Here I Am
Know I never left you
Do you understand ?

There's no need to die again
Take My Hand
Let me mend the broken parts
Give me all you can

Know that I was with you
Through all the pain
I was once there all alone
When no one seemed to care

Still a Light within was always burning
There's no need to cry again
Here I Am
Know I'll always love you
Know I understand

There's no need to die again
Take My Hand
I will take the sorrows
It's within the plan

Give me your afflictions
Relinquish all the pain
Let me mend the broken parts
And fill the emptiness
So you can live again

There's no need to cry again
Here I Am
Know I'll always love you
I think you understand

There's no need to die again
Take My Hand
Know that I will hold you
When no one can be found
Let me mend the broken parts
So you may live again
Know that I Am Here
For Here I Am

Many times when my day is through
Many time when I’m feelin’ down and blue
All I have to do
Is close my eyes
And lean on You

And when I stumble
Fall all the way down to the ground
And there’s nobody there
Nobody to be found
All I have to do
Is close my eyes
And lean on You

I can hear the Spirit, it’s callin’ me back again
I can hear Him sayin’ “Come on boy I’m your friend.”

(CHORUS)

He’s sayin’ “Hey, hey, hey, hey ya wanna be free?
Hey, hey, hey, hey taste and see!
Hey, hey, hey, hey come and follow me… …straight to the heart of Jesus!”

I can feel the Spirit, it’s blowin’ like the wind
I can hear Him sayin’ “Come on boy let me in.”

(CHORUS)

(BRIDGE)

I can feel the Spirit taken me higher and higher
As I’m dancin’ through the refining fire.

I’m making my way back, my heart’s an open door
Singing glory hallelujah, I want more and more

I’m singing “Hey, hey, hey, hey I’m gonna be free
Hey, hey, hey, I’m gonna taste and see
Hey, hey, hey, I’m gonna follow after thee… …straight to the heart of Jesus
