Song Lyrics

"Two Thousand Years"

by Barren Cross
Album: State Of Control

Two thousand years ago, there came a man,
A man who was hated and loved, worshipped and killed,
But what was this man all about, and what did he do'
What made him different, and why did his name live on too'

For me to live is Christ, to die is gain,
There's no other name by which I'm saved,
I've got the power, it's in my sights,
Because with him I'm not afraid to die, yeah.

Now I will disclose his name: it's Jesus Christ, yeah,
Why did he come just to die, and how did he rise'
Why is our system of dating based on one man's death'
And why is the world upside-down 'cause of one man's life' - yeah.

For me to live is Christ, to die is gain,
There's no other name by which I'm saved,
I've got the power, it's in my sights,
Because with him I'm not afraid to die.

Now I must warn you they'll tell you don't need God, no,
They are the foolish, and they are the ones who will burn, burn in Hell,
But if you accept him you'll be born again - do it now,
You will live,
Feel the power of God like lead,
Feel the metal from in my head,
Feel the steel take it's flight,
For, when it leaves, Heaven will be in sight.

Two thousand years,
Two thousand years.

If you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord,
And if you believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead,
Then you will be saved and forgiven; you just have to ask,
He'll never leave nor forsake you - his promise is fact.

For me to live is Christ, to die is gain,
There's no other name by which I'm saved,
I've got the power, it's in my sights,
Because with him I'm not afraid to die.
