The Lion and the Lamb


Martin Luther once said, "Music is the handmaiden of theology." So just take a little time to enjoy this wonderful, Christ exalting song, and contemplate the person and work of Christ, the Lion of Judah, and the Lamb of God.




Who is He...Who's the mightiest of all
Who is He...Creation trembles at His call
Who is He...The lowly sacrifice, who paid a victims price
His name is Jesus

(chorus)
Jesus...From the Father's own right hand
Jesus...Son of God and son of man
Jesus...Who died and rose again
Jesus...He's the Lion and the Lamb

Who is He...With the power none can tame
Who is He...That every foe would fear His name
Who is He...Who was humbly led away, to suffer that dark day
His name is Jesus

(chorus)

He's the Lion and the Lamb

(Hook)
He's the Lamb that was slain
He's the Lion that reigns
My Savior and King both the same

Who is He...With the eyes that burn like fire
Who is He...Oh the wonder He inspires
Who is He...Who bore the guilt and shame
For those who've gone astray
His name is Jesus

(chorus)

He's the Lion and He is... healer from the Father's own right hand
Jesus...Son of God and son of man
Jesus...Who died and rose again
Jesus...He's the Lion and the Lamb

He's the Lion and the Lamb (repeat 2x)

Soul to Seoul

After this I looked, and behold, a great multitude that no one could number, from every nation, from all tribes and peoples and languages, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed in white robes, with palm branches in their hands, and crying out with a loud voice, "Salvation belongs to our God who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb!"
-- Revelation 7:9-10
It is amazing how the Gospel of Christ transcends ethnicity, culture, and national borders. No really, don't just take that for granted, ponder it for a moment, because it really is an amazing thing. How did the Bible know that this would happen? There have been times when I've met people, and we couldn't be more different, but when we find out that we have Christ in common, there is an instant bond of joyful fellowship. And it's a fellowship that runs far deeper than just a shared interest. Why is that?

That brings me to this video, you will not believe your ears when you hear it. These ladies are from South Korea, English is not their national language, but listen to their rendition of His Eye is on the Sparrow and marvel at the transcendent beauty of the Gospel.
