Picket Sign

Lyrics

[Verse 1] This is Your protest, this is Your stand Your blood poured out for the blood on our hands For the accused and all the oppressed For every heart hanging on by a thread [Chorus 1] The cross leapt in like a picket sign You carried the weight for all mankind You gave Your life just to give me mine Your love leapt in like a picket sign [Verse 2] You are the voice for those who can't speak You march for love, You walk with the weak You call for justice, Your kingdom come In Jesus name, our chains are undone [Chorus 1] The cross leapt in like a picket sign You carried the weight for all mankind You gave Your life just to give me mine Your love leapt in like a picket sign [Bridge] Aaa-a-a-amen, aaa-a-a-amen Aaa-a-a-amen, aaa-a-a-amen [Chorus 2] The cross leapt in like a picket sign You carried the weight for all mankind You gave Your life just to give me mine Your love leapt in like a picket sign Both arms reaching for the other side Your love leapt in like a picket sign [Outro] Aaa-a-a-amen, aaa-a-a-amen Aaa-a-a-amen, aaa-a-a-amen
