Song for John Songtext
von Adrian Snell

Nearly done, I′m feeling cold
Giving all this body holds
The story never ends, so old
Hours have passed, it's been so long
My hands are numb, and soon I will be gone
Then the battle will be won

Tell them that those who were dead are alive
Make them remember I′ve cast out fear
Show them the crippled now running wild
Tell them with joy their master's here
Shout what you can see
My power can set them
Shout what you can see
My power can set them free


John, you're looking tired
Let me draw you closer to my fire
Show you how the world′s inspired
Mary, see, it′s all been planned
The Christ must die, try to understand
The Son of God is in God's hand
John, take your mother now, Mary, your son
Stand and be ready, for life has begun

Tell them that when I come down from the cross
Death will be over, its power will be lost
Then let the world see
My power can set them free

Tell them that those who were dead are alive
Make them remember I′ve cast out fear
Show them the crippled now running wild
Tell them with joy their master's here
Shout what you can see
My power can set them
Shout what you can see
My power can set them free

Set them free
Set them free
