The Jews require a sign
God made foolish, wisdom of this world
The Greeks seek after wisdom
Foolish and weak confound wise and mighty
God is wiser and stronger than man

Run patient the race
Jesus stirs and ends our faith
Don’t faint in your minds
Despise not chastisement
God deals with you as His sons
Flesh father corrected
Both deserves reverence
Jesus corrects us
Chastisement seems grievous
Yields peaceful righteousness

Christ’s the foundation
Our bodies are the Temple
All belonged to God

Jews require a sign
The Greeks seek after wisdom
Christ is Crucified
For the Jews a stumbling block
Unto the Greeks foolishness
But unto them called
Both Jews and Greeks Christ is God
Wisdom and power
Foolishness of God is wise
Strain of God stronger than man

They believed him not
For they loved the praise of men
More than praise of God

Now the Son is God
The Lord’s throne is eternal
Rod of righteousness
Laid the foundations
Of Heaven and earth
He would not perish

Deadly stress pulls up ancient ache
Memories brought to forefront quakes
Time has gone by for my own sake
I pray to God my soul to wake
tiny fingers curl
oxygen helps her breathing
God comforts my soul

Nothing for loving he’s all buried in
Nothing for innocence repenting his sin
Nothing for sharing in hands empty hold
Nothing for touching his soul has been sold
