Lion Became the Lamb Songtext

von Chris Tomlin

It was in the dark I heard You calling
A mighty voice whisper my name
A fire inside; a sweet surrender
My eyes began to see the beauty of the Savior

On alters of stone in the human heart
You laid down your life, You took our part
For the sin of the world, the ransom of all
The Lion became the Lamb of God
The Lion became the Lamb of God

No greater love, no one but Jesus
Could roll away, roll away the night
Immanuel; the gift of heaven
You've crushed the enemy; I'm alive and I'm forgiven

On alters of stone in the human heart
You laid down your life, You took our part
For the sin of the world, the ransom of all
The Lion became the Lamb of God
The Lion became the Lamb of God

And the time had come though the war was won
The battle for my freedom had just begun
But You wouldn't abandon me for the sake of Your story

On alters of stone in the human heart
You laid down your life, You took our part
For the sin of the world, the ransom of all
The Lion became the Lamb

On alters of stone in the human heart
You laid down your life, You took our part
For the sin of the world, the ransom of all
The Lion became the Lamb
You are seated at the Father's right hand
The Lion became the Lamb of God.
