Jesus Clears the Temple
Chorus:
Jesus clears the temple;
Who knew it could be so unclean?
He takes the prophet’s mantle;
Is He the king he claims to be?
I’ve seen Him work miracles,
Speak power and peace;
Now, chasing these swindlers out,
That power again is released—throw out the thieves!
I’m an honest businessman;
I help keep community strong
By offering services we all need—
Is making a profit so wrong? Here I belong!

This charlatan worries me,
That he could draw such a crowd
Maybe it’s time that we fashioned a crime
To chase “country-boy” here out of town—we must put him down!
Lord, this is Your most
Dang’rous act yet;
Take my advice, Just be quiet and nice
Or the priests will wring Your Rabbi neck—please keep it in check!
All Might Believe (John 17)
Father, the time has come
To glorify Your Son,
So He can give glory back to You
For these sheep I plead,
And the ones they will lead to You;
Oh, fill them with joy and grace and truth
Chorus:
Oh, lead them to unity, join them to You and Me,
Healing, revealing, that all might believe
Help them to teach and pray, living out every day
All We have shown them, that all might believe
Father, the time has come
To glorify Your Son,
So He can give glory back to You
For these sheep I plead,
And the ones they will lead to You;
Oh, fill them with joy and grace and truth
Chorus:
Oh, lead them to unity, join them to You and Me,
Healing, revealing, that all might believe
Help them to teach and pray, living out every day
All We have shown them, that all might believe
Take them not out of the world
Where the evil one’s banners unfurl
But simply protect them from his tempting pow’r
Before there was sky to call blue,
Or eyes for the Light to flow through
You knew and prepared them for this darkened hour . . . this darkened hour . . .
CHORUS
Father the time has come...
