The Son Quickeneth Whom He Will
John · Concerto Grosso
[Verse 1]
Verily, verily, the Son does nothing alone;
He sees the Father's work and does the same.
The Father loves the Son and shows Him all,
And greater works shall make you marvel at His name.
[Refrain]
As the Father raiseth the dead and gives them life,
So the Son quickeneth whom He will;
Judgment is committed wholly to the Son,
That all may honor Him in heaven and earth be still.
[Verse 2]
Who hears My word and trusts the One who sent Me
Has everlasting life and shall not be condemned;
From death to life that soul has passed already,
The former sentence broken at its end.
[Breakdown]
The hour is coming, and now is,
The dead shall hear the Son of God's own voice;
They that hear shall live.
[Verse 3]
The Father has the life within Himself;
The Son has life and judgment in His hand.
Marvel not: the graves shall hear His summons,
And every buried generation rise and stand.
[Outro]
The good come forth to resurrection life;
The evil, to the resurrection of damnation.
