Текст песни: The 13th Apostle + перевод

The full Gospel, from the 13th apostle

That’s me and you, now tell what you gonna do

In the beginning was the word and the word became flesh

Through him all things are made, without him there’s nothing left

John the Baptist recognized the Christ at first glance

He testified the coming of the Lord as the Lord advanced

Andrew and Simon Peter was the first two to follow

They’re faith was immediate, they spirits wasn’t hollow

Then Phillip and Nathaniel in the town of Galilee

They watched Jesus turn water to wine for all to see

Jesus, the Son of God made a whip out of cords

For those who tried to market the Word in the house of the Lord

Zeal for your house will consume me, it is written

Destroy the temple, but in three days the temple will be risen

Flesh give birth to flesh, but spirit birth to spirit

You must be born again, not just talk it, but live it

The Son has come to shed light on a dark world

Expose you to the truth, and make you living proof

Like the Samaritan spirit was dying from thirst

I wanna drink from the spring of life, not from the earth

But from the first, who first made man from the dirt

Others believed from miraculous signs of the times

Like walking on water, and feeding thousands with just five

Loaves and two fish, but the Jew was ruthless

How could a man do this, they knew it was God but still wanted him to prove it

The plan was in movement

After Lazarus was raised they went stir crazed

Set up, a scheme of schemes on the king of king, Judas snitching things

Son of Simon, devil inside him ready to kill the king

Death ridden, to the apostles the plan was hidden

But promised the Holy Spirit, after all, its written

Now father the time has come to glorify your son

Do a work through the apostles, believers, he lost none

On the valley of Kidron, led mainly by the traitor

Was a click of Pharisees to falsely accuse the savior

Peter drew the sword and struck with the ill behavior

On the ear of the servant, even though he deserved it

God’s will had to be fulfilled, couldn’t let the cup spill

Cuffed the Lord, bought for the priest for the easy kill

The prophecy of Caiaphas was being fulfilled

3 time denied, back to Pilate, where he was drilled

Questioning the king of the truth, they found no proof

But the Jews wanted him slew, let Barabbas loose

A thief and a murderer, they loved their own

But hated the man, who tried to lead them to the throne

Twisted crown of thorns, mocked, in a purple robe

Crucify was heard from the angry crowd in a drone

The soldiers took charge, placed the cross on his spine

The place of the skull where they crucified the divine

And when it was finished, he bowed his head, have up his spirit

His body placed in a new tomb, wrapped in linen

But don’t cry for the Lord of hosts, on the third day he came like a ghost

Appeared to Mary, she stood froze

Cries of joy she screamed, I seen the Lord

Ran to the disciples with the good report

Later that night, revealed himself with the battle scars

They tried to lock Jesus Christ down, like prison bars

But on the third day he rose, spirit clothed

What a wonderful vision, my Lord’s arisen
