 Rate It Is Finished
Artist : Petra
Song : It is finished
John 19:1-30
Words & Music by Bob Hartman
In the heat of early morning on a hill they call
the Skull
The roaring of the angry mob had settled to a
lull
All eyes were cast upon the man whose hands and
feet were bound
They saw him cry in anguish when they heard the
hammer pound
They saw the bloody woven thorns with which his
head was crowned
They watched the bloody cross of wood be dropped
into the ground
The soldiers gambled for his clothes, they
watched them win and lose
They saw the sign above his head that said "King
of the Jews"
(It is finished) And the sky grew black as the
night
(It is finished) And the people scattered in
fright
The work had been done, redemption had been won
The war was over without a fight
It is finished
They searched his face for anger for vengeance in
his stare
Instead of eyes that burned with hate a look of
love was there
He prayed for their forgiveness and bowed his
battered head
And no one knew the meaning of the final words he
said
It is finished, the provision has been made
It is finished, the foundation has been laid
He paid the ransom due and tore the temple veil
in two
And opened up the way for me and you
