“Wrong will be right when Aslan comes in sight,
At the sound of his roar, sorrow will be no more,
When he bares his teeth, winter meets its death,
And when he shakes his mane, we shall have spring again.”
– Mr. Beaver (The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe)
THE LION OF JUDAH
Majestic mane - wind pets the fur
where no earthling can stroke.
His roar like thunder-blast, no purr -
sacrificed lamb awoke.
Lion couches in paradise -
Fierce and fearless; revered
His life for ours - the purchase price.
Christ rose…and interfered
with mock-lion - serpent unmasked.
Judah’s great paw strikes head
of the venomous snake, as tasked.
Man born, reborn…sin’s dead.
Terror to ears, frenzy of brain -
fearsome to all mortals.
Pleasing to His; drives lost insane.
Each to his own portals.
In end, all will bow at His throne
by roar of His sceptre -
Jesus Christ’s name, no greater known.
His chosen Bride - He rewards her.

Silver lover and the lover of gold
Let me roeh the story untold
The one who betrayed Jesus
Jesus Christ who are today's Judah?
Greedy, miser and selfish are current Yahuda.
A priest on top of Mount Zion
Offered a prayer to Orion
The scripture quoted
On the air floated
So lunch was fresh for the lion
I, Lazarus*, have seen the brickwork sky,
Its throne is made of night!
Its salt and lime are drying to the eye,
My wandering…
a sound! a rumble, and a flash of light!
HHHHHHH! How sweet first breath!
That tasting life had tasted only death!
And what is THIS, that thuds against my tomb?
Awaken, Heart! And greet thy new-found groom!
Who is HE, that speaks with sudden waking,
As though forgotten dawn was newly breaking?
I cannot know, though memory tells me so,
I am a Man, and not a man of dough!
O bright the door that leads me back to life!
But, bidden! I must change my sleep for strife!
Thank you, heart-friend!
I thought that you’d forgot!
Who made me breathe, ‘I AM!’ when I was not.
Forgive! I cannot hear, my head’s like snow,
AH! That’s it, ‘loose the man, and let him go!'

*Lazarus was a friend of Jesus Christ, who raised him from the dead
Man of Judah
The priceless gem who came to lay
Innocent and sinless lamb that came to save
Born for us thousand years ago in a day
As everyone is redeemed through His grace
Man of Judah
The son of David heart of God
Gave all and came unto earth
Saviour of mankind and the only lord
Who freed us from every bondage and nest
Man of Judah
The only divine who raises from the dead
Came unto you aand I for a bread
But we turned Him away due to fear
What others will say about us there
Man of Judah
Speared on the cross for our own sake
Wiped on the way to calvary till stake
Nailed to the cross in agoy of bitterness
Just for us to have an everlasting happiness
Man of Judah
The saviour of mankind
Keep calling us into his fold to bind
And to keep is under His father's wing for eternity
And also enjoy His unfailing grace in sanity
Man of Judah
Still keeps crying for the lost souls
As He preaches to them to join His fold
As to be washed in His blood and be made whole
As their light shines and beams in fold
In Gilead he's the balm
That makes any sickness calm;
In Isreal he's the consolation
That restores all desolation.
In Judah he's the Lion
That keeps watch over Zion;
In Galilee he's the miracle founder
That makes Jerusalem wonder.
On earth he's the spring of salvation
That satisfies spiritual starvation.
He's the source of light
That gives all sight.
To me, he's the owner of my soul
That makes me whole;
He's my unfailing life giver
That floods my life with joy as river.
God's not dead He's still alive He's....
Living on the inside roaring like a lion.
My tale is from the time of Rome
Away across the sea
The tale of one called Jesus Christ
From distant Galilee
He placed Himself at God's command
Accepting all His will
Accomplishing the work of God
From Tyre to Olive's hill
He walked the streets and sailed the seas
He healed the blind and lame
Since Jesus came and changed the world
It's never been the same
He hung upon a cross of wood
To save from Adam's fate
He lived and worked among the poor
And died in low estate
He turned the world right upside-down
With nothing but His love
And now He watches us with care
From heaven's court above
