It's Not Just History

I heard a cry through the night
Echoing through the sky
A distance star shone bright, in my youthful eyes
The sky flashed a brilliant white
A thousands stars had come to life
Harmony's filled the air, like I never heard before
An angel said, "Go find the voice who cries
For one day He will save your life"

But it was He, who found me, reached across the centuries
He broke the chains of sin and set me free
Though He lived years ago, the story still forever told
He lives now in you and me
It's not just history

I heard a cry of suffering
Upon the Cross in agony
I saw my Savior die with my weary eyes
Then darkness fell upon the sun
For we have slain the Lamb of God

But it was He, who found me, reached across the centuries
He broke the chains of sin and set me free (set me free)
Though He lived years ago, the story still forever told
He lives now in you and me
It's not just history

It was He, who found me, reached across the centuries
He broke the chains of sin and set me free (set me free)
(It was He, who found me) You're part of history
(Broke the chains, and set me free)

Yes, He lives in you and me (it's not just history)
(It's not just history) you're part of his story
It's not just history
It's not just history
