Hoppers God Raised The Ransom
See fallen man held hostage by sin
Doomed to a perilous fate
See a loving father pain and mercy in His eyes
Giving one Son so that others might be saved
Chorus
God raised the Ransom Jesus paid it on the cross
There the purest of lambs was slain for the lost
Blood shed for a sin debt only Jesus could pay
God raised the Ransom on crucifixion day
The Saviour had come accept by some
Others just could not believe
They had hoped the Messiah
Would build a kingdom on this earth
But instead He came to suffer and to serve
The Lord tasted death and then breathed one new breath
Life blossomed and filled up the tomb
Death had lost its sting he was conquered by the king
When He arose, Glory broke the seal of doom
Chorus
God raised the Ransom Jesus walked out of the grave
There Hope died was buried and left to decay
And sunrise His eyes watched the stone rolled away
God raised the Ransom on resurrection day
