Song Lyrics

"2000 Years"

by The Electrics
Album: Visions And Dreams

I'm looking at the newsreel, hearing what they say,
I can't believe the bad things that can happen in one day,
But I've got some news for you; come gather 'round and hear,
'Cause something good can happen every day of every year.

He took away my guilt and sin, he took away my tears,
And that's the greatest news I've heard in two thousand years,
Took away my filth and pride, took away my fears,
And that's the greatest news I've heard in two thousand years.

I'm looking at the bible, I'm reading from the word,
I want to tell you what I see, though it may sound absurd,
It tells about one single man completely free from sin,
It says that he was God's own son, and through him you can win.

He took away my guilt and sin, he took away my tears,
And that's the greatest news I've heard in two thousand years,
He took away my filth and pride, he took away my fears,
And that's the greatest news I've heard in two thousand years.

So gather 'round and listen,
And you can understand exactly what he done for you, this humble son of man,
They beat him up and scarred him; 'Forgive them,' was his cry,
They pulled his hair and spat on him, then hung him up to die.

He took away my guilt and sin, he took away my tears,
And that's the greatest news I've heard in two thousand years,
He took away my filth and pride, he took away my fears,
And that's the greatest news I've heard in two thousand years.

He took away my guilt and sin, he took away my tears,
And that's the greatest news I've heard in two thousand years,
Took away my filth and pride, took away my fears,
And that's the greatest news I've heard in two thousand years,
Took away my guilt and sin, he took away my tears,
And that's the greatest news I've heard in two thousand years,
Took away my filth and pride, took away my fears,
And that's the greatest news I've heard in two thousand years,
He took away my guilt and sin, he took away my tears,
And that's the greatest news I've heard in two thousand years,
He took away my filth and pride, he took away my fears,
And that's the greatest news I've heard in two thousand years.
