Can you see, the relevancy
Of you and me beneath this tree
This Cross of life that came to be
When a lie was told, so sinfully

For you and I, from babe to old
Will learn a truth that had once been told
That our hearts and minds had once been sold
To a devilish prince, who had once been gold

But now he lurks like twisted vines
Into the world's unsuspecting minds
To plant more lies, deceives, reminds
That we're worthless junk with sins of kinds

Don't listen, don't hear, just close your eyes
Instead set heart to heavenly skies
Where all nature sings a praise that rise
To glorify a King so eternal wise

This King is God, who so loved us all
He sent His Son to catch our fall
With all His might, His blood, His all
Gave His beautiful Name for us to call

So make today that day you make
A decision that'll make your spirit wake
Believe in Jesus who will powerfully take
Your pain, your death, your fiery lake

This life is short, don't wait to die
When it's way too late to even try
To turn around and say goodbye
To a life of pain not worth your while

So can you see the relevancy
Of you and me redeemed, set free
Released in faith to truly see
Our hearts are God's, eternally.
