Craig Smith  Chosen to serve as the sacrifice lamb  The binder of all the earths wounds  Called the Deliverer, Chief Cornerstone  Slain and then buried, but He rose from the tomb  Chorus  He is the Ancient of days  Giver of freedom with the price that He paid  He is the Ancient of days  Exposing the enemy's great masquerade  Giver of life, His is the Ancient of days  Courageous Redeemer, who's life giving blood  Is the ransom for wayward man's soul  Covenant Messenger, Heir of all things  The Shepherd and Guardian, Guardian of souls  Chorus  Warrior of holiness, Messiah and King  Ruler of Israel, Salvation's great Captain  Hope for all man  One day every tongue will say the Lord is He  Chorus  "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word  was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things came into being by  Him, and apart from Him nothing came into being that has come into being.  In Him was life and the life was the light of men. The light shines in the  darkness and the darkness did not overpower it." John 1:1-5  "...conduct yourselves in fear during the time of your stay upon the  earth knowing that you were not ransomed with perishable things like  silver or gold from your futile way of life inherited from your  forefathers, but with the precious blood, as of a lamb unblemished and  spotless, the blood of Christ." I Peter 1:17-19  It's an awesome thought to realize that Jesus, the man born of a virgin  and laid in a hay stable, created the universe with God the Father. They  spoke a word and the stars and planets were flung into existence. They  spoke another word and living creatures were formed, and yet another  word and man's flesh was formed. They used their very breath and  breathed life into the nostrils of this man they had created. They gave  this man the ability to decide, a choice to obey his Creator or to  disobey Him. He disobeyed. God, the Ancient of Days, loved this man so  much, He gave His only Son, His co-creator, to be born in a manger, then  be put to death by this man. God's Son, His Lamb, was the ransom for this  man.--Bill Stuckey
