They Heard The WORD

[Verse 1] They heard the Word He paid the price Made himself the sacrifice Roman soldiers nailed him to a cross They heard the Word The deed was done Darkness blotted out the sun Believers were now weeping for their loss [Verse 2] They heard the Word The tomb was clear The Holy corpse was nowhere near Angels told them that their lord had woken They heard the Word The time had come Jesus rose from martyrdom And all the chains of death and hell been broken [Chorus] He is the Lord the great I Am King and Savior and the Lamb He is the door which leads to our salvation He is the Way the Truth the Life The Son of God he is the Christ Upon this rock we build a sure foundation [Verse 3] They heard the Word Stood in their midst Peace be unto you he bidst And showed his side and hands to his eleven They heard the Word For forty days Taught his chosen of his ways Then slowly he ascended into heaven [Chorus] He is the Lord the great I Am King and Savior and the Lamb He is the door which leads to our salvation He is the Way the Truth the Life The Son of God he is the Christ Upon this rock we build a sure foundation [Chorus] He is the Lord the great I Am King and Savior and the Lamb He is the door which leads to our salvation He is the Way the Truth the Life The Son of God he is the Christ Upon this rock we build a sure foundation Upon this rock the rock of revelation
