Brian Udechukwu - Outside the City Lyrics

Here we go

Outside the city
You were crucified
Outside the city
In the day turned night
Outside the city
You were lifted high
Outside the city
You bled and died

On that day You took
The death belonging to me
Outside the city
You died for me

Inside the grave
Your body laid
Inside the grave
Three days await
Inside the grave
Is what it takes
To take the sins
Of man away

You went into hell
To set the captives free
Then three days later
You rose for me

For the new city
We seek and wait
For the new city
We watch and pray
For the new city
O precious day
When we behold
The Lamb once slain

On that day all tears
We shed You'll wipe away
There'll be no more death
Nor sorrow come our way
Every evil soul
Will not get to partake
This old earth and heaven
Will vanish away
There'll be no more night
You'll be the light of day

From the tree of life
We'll then get to partake
As the river flows from Your
Precious throne
All the righteous will rejoice
All dressed in white
For that precious day
O Lord we watch and pray
