Song notes Part 3

Revelation
words/music by Jonathan Meek

Several years ago our church was hosting a youth conference called “The Flood” and I was asked to write a song that expressed the heart of the event. “Revelation” was born. We are the reason Jesus left His majesty in heaven, came to earth and endured the torturous death of the cross. We were hopelessly separated from God so Jesus opened the door to relationship with Him. He did it for us; WE were the joy set before Him! Then, instead of simply demanding that we worship Him, Jesus reveals His love, His grace, His freedom and His kingdom of righteousness, peace and joy! Should we worship Him? Of course! But when we realize His love for us, it comes naturally. What a God!
