Original Cast Of His Story The Musical Lyrics
(performed by Revel Day, Black Gryph0n, Anna Miriam Brown, Jess Da Rosa & Chase Crandell)
(from "His Story The Musical" soundtrack)
Jesus, this one goes out to You
It's been a few months since You've been away
But us who know You know You're here
And here to stay
Like You said the Holy Ghost came
And lit the way
I know You know this, but my friend
Well, I'm gonna tell you anyway!
So!
I'm witnessing the world
It's looking up for the first time
Sitting in darkness but light has dawned
And by light I mean Your eyes
Now humanity's found hope
I say this even in the worst times
And we don't wanna look away
It's kinda like the first time
This time it's different
This time I know You
This time we're friends and
[MATTHEW & MISS MAGDALENE:]
My friend I wanna show you
Something we've been working on
With Your help so Jesus
Would you stick around?
[MATTHEW:]
Because
[DISCIPLES:]
It's started
[MATTHEW:]
Hearts are being lain at your feet
Tenderheartedly You pick them up and we see
You take the chains off one by one
I know now that I need to know You so
[DISCIPLES:]
Jesus come!
[PETER:]
It's been a few months
Since You had to go away
But your Spirit never left
And like they said, we're blown away
Since we crossed, I'm never lost
'Cause You know the way
You are the Way, it's not hard to say
So would You show the way?
[MISS MAGDALENE:]
I'm witnessing the world in a new light
The sun is shining
Like You said I saw the sunset
But You can bet I saw it rising
Now the purpose of the nighttime
Was the fight I'm realizing
So again You could be our friend
As we take You in, You keep arriving
This time I witnessed
They wanna know You
To be Your friend
[MISS MAGDALENE & MATTHEW:]
Oh my friend I wanna show You
Something we've been working on
[MISS MAGDALENE, PETER & MATTHEW:]
With Your help, so Jesus
Would you stick around?
Because
[PETER:]
It's started!
Hearts are being lain at Your feet
Tenderheartedly you pick them up and we see
You take the chains off, one by one
I know now that I need to know You so
Jesus come!
[DISCIPLES:]
It's started!
Hearts are being lain at Your feet
Tenderheartedly You pick them up and we see
You take the chains off, one by one
I know now that I need to know You so
Jesus come!
Your kingdom come
Your kingdom come
Your kingdom come
Your kingdom come
Your kingdom come
Your kingdom come
[PETER:]
Things change and time passes
It's all part of the story
[MISS MAGDALENE:]
But now it's beauty from ashes
[PETER:]
And from glory to glory
[MATTHEW:]
Yeah in the beginning was the Word
But like He said, it's our part
To start writing His story
[MISS MAGDALENE, MATTHEW & PETER:]
On the tablet of your hearts
[MARY:]
The sunrise in His eyes reflecting our own
Yeah, there was darkness in the night
But now Christ is our home
And we watch You arrive
Over and over and over again
So 'til next time my friend
[DISCIPLES:]
The sunrise in His eyes reflecting our own
Yeah, there was darkness in the night
But now Christ is our home
And we watch You arrive
Over and over and over again
So 'til next time my friend
Amen!
[MATTHEW:]
Amen!
