[Verse 1]
Laid Him in the grave - with their heads hung low
Couldn't have predicted - they wouldn't hold out hope
Heard the roar of the crowd - crucifixion decreed
Saw Him nailed to the cross - surprised He didn't scream
His words stunned the guard - just blew him away
Saw love in His eyes - through His very last day
[Verse 2]
But the beat-up victim - couldn't take it anymore
Took a Roman to say it - but he knew for sure
That Son of God - was good 'til the end
He didn't do wrong - to other men
That One they scarred - One they'd brought low
Was the One predicted - from a long time ago
[Pre-Chorus]
So they brought a rock in
And laid it on the top
Lotta people talkin'
Some say God'll raise that Dude back up
[Chorus]
To be the Jews' lost hero (God's Son will arise)
He's the Jews' lost hero
He's the Son of God
(Jews' lost hero -- Son will arise)
Jews' lost hero (Son will arise)
He's gonna rise to life
[Turnaround]
[Verse 3]
In Isaiah 53 -- in a passage now ignored
God described a Man of Sorrows - my exact same Lord
Like the Scriptures at last - that day finally came
When that One they scarred -- made the whole world change
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Now I hear some people knock Him
They just can't stop
Gotta read more often
That poignant spot Isaiah's got
[Chorus 2]
To see the Jews' lost hero (God's Son did arise)
He's the Jews' lost hero (God's Son did arise)
Yeahhhh -- Jews' lost hero (That Son did arise)
With that Son of God (Son did arise)
We'll come alive
Come alive through Christ
("Huh")
[Instrumental Break feat. Electric Guitar]
[Pre-Chorus 3]
Yeah, a lotta people mock Him
They just can't stop
But I think you'd like Him
That joy I've got you may have sought
[Chorus 3]
You need the Jews' lost hero (God's Son is alive)
He's the Jews' lost hero (God's Son is alive)
He's the Son of God (Jews' lost hero, Son is alive)
'Cause He's the Jews' lost hero (Son)
[Outro]
Jews' lost hero (Son, Son, Son)
Jews' lost hero (Son, Son) (Jews' lost hero)
Jesus Christ is alive
Christ is alive
