He Was Heard Lyrics by Card Michael
Clean Lyric
Paragraph Lyric
Michael Card Hebrews 4:14 - 5:10 & 7:11-28In the days of old the priest would comeWith a lifeless sacrificeWhile the crowd in anxious silenceWould wait outsideAs he entered in his templeThey hoped he would be heardGod would give them a tomorrowAnd the priest would stay aliveTheir only choice, their only hopeWould he be heardTheir only way they might be savedWould he be heardIn the fullness of the promise timeThe Final Priest did comeAnd He offered up a living sacrificeNow we His children wait for HimWith hope and joyful praiseFor we know that God has heard HimFor we know that He was raisedHe offered cheerful praise and He was heardHe offered up His life and He was heardChorusSo let us fix our eyes uponThe priest whom God did hearFor the joy that was before HimHe overcame the fearOh, once and all He paid the costEnduring all the shameTaking up the cruel crossIgnoring all the painRepeat Chorus
