Ray Boltz - Defeated Lyrics
DefeatedWords by Ray Boltz, Music by Ray Boltz and Steve MillikanI was listening to my radioWhen something went wrongThe voice of the announcerSuddenly came onHe said, We interrupt this programWith late breaking newsLast night they arrestedThe King of the JewsHe said, We take you nowTo Pilate's houseWhere Christ is on trialIt sounded like the announcerWas wearing a smileAs he described the accusationsIn the judgment hallAnd how Jesus just stood thereDidn't say nothing at allGet ready everybodyThe judgments coming downI held my breathI closed my eyesI didn't make a soundJesus defeated,Was all that he saidGuilty, convicted,And sentenced to deathSoon it will be finishedOn a cross made of woodLooks like it's over for goodJesus defeatedHis next few words,I could hardly believeHe said, We're standing hereAt Calvary's treeThe sky has turned blackBlood covers the landFrom the spear in His sideAnd the nails in His handsNow some called Him a SaviorSaid He lived without sinSome said it did notDo much for himSome called him MessiahGod's only sonOthers shook their headsAnd said, The good die youngJesus defeated,Was all that he saidGuilty, convicted, and now he is deadYes, it is finished,On a cross made of woodLooks like it's over for goodJesus defeatedYeah, Jesus is defeatedWhen you look at the graveUntil you see thatThe stone's been rolled awayJesus is defeatedWhen you look at all the painHe had to feelAnd then you read Isaiah 53A
