V1
He came riding on a donkey into the city;
not a Stallion or a Clydesdale, just ordinary.
The people laid down their garments into the streets;
Shouted, “Hosanna, to the highest, He is our King.”
Then the blind and the lame came, and He healed them.
On the same day He did good, their love would become hate.
All the questions, had been answered
So they slept as He prayed.
On the same day He did good,
their love would become hate.
All the Miracles, all the parables
All the wisdom He gave.
(BGV: Astonished beyond measure.)
The currency of His blood shed
Was the price that He paid.
Chorus
(But) Jesus is living,
He overcame abandonment and shame.
Jesus is living,
He overcame – death, Hell, and the grave.
Jesus is living,
And now He reigns above all other names.
He overcame.
He overcame.
V2
Now this is more than just a story - told
It was the Father’s plan, to restore Creation back to Him.
He shed His royal robe in glory
“A prelude to His passion”
The telling never grows old.
(They said) Prophet do you hear what they are saying?
[Speak] Jesus said, to them,
Out of the mouths of babes comes perfected praise!
All the questions, had been answered
So they slept as He prayed.
On the same day He did good,
their love would become hate.
All the Miracles, all the parables,
All the wisdom He gave.
(BGV: Astonished beyond measure)
The currency of His blood shed,
Was the price that He paid.
Chorus
Jesus is living,
He overcame abandonment and shame.
Jesus is living,
He overcame – death, Hell, and the grave.
Jesus is living,
And now He reigns above all other names.
He overcame.
He overcame.
Bridge
He got up from the grave.
With all power and authority.
Jesus was raised!
The angels said, “He is not here.
Then the women went on their way
and told the disciples so they came
And found a grave that was empty
But for the clothes of disgrace.
He overcame!
(Adlib: the inscription of His accusation written above)
He’s living!
He’s living
He’s living
He overcame.
(Adlib: He want a ‘was’ He is, He is, He is)
He’s living!
He’s living
He’s living
And now reigns.
Chorus
Jesus is living,
He overcame abandonment and shame.
Jesus is living,
He overcame – death, Hell, and the grave.
Jesus is living,
And now He reigns above all other names.
He overcame
