Easter Spectacular 2024 Lyrics
Follow along throughout the musical with these song lyrics!
Gallilee
Words and Music by Chelsi Nikkerud
For years we’ve toiledÂ
Our hands are rough
From the nets we throwÂ
Hoping we catch enoughÂ
The sweat on our browÂ
The pride in our heartsÂ
We put in the workÂ
Then we make a new startÂ
Eyes up eyes up
Upon the horizon this life is enoughÂ
Heart free heart freeÂ
As we watch sun rise, over GalileeÂ
We can’t take our time
‘Cause the pressure is on
Knowing each fish we catchÂ
Fills our pouches with gold
Each day is the sameÂ
Could there be something MoreÂ
We put in the workÂ
With this life keeping score
Eyes up eyes up
Upon the horizon is this life is enoughÂ
Heart free does God see meÂ
As we watch sun rise, over GalileeÂ
Eyes up eyes up
Could this be the one that our hope’s set upon
Heart free heart free
As we watch sun rise
watch sun rise
watch sun ri–se

Glorious Collision
Words and Music by Joth Hunt
Such a tragedy, oh it's overtaken me
I never thought that this could be
I've got no one left
Tears flooded in my eyes, I couldn't even recognize
The One who caused the dead to rise
Was right in front of me
What a glorious collision, when You came
And turned it around, death became life
Everything changed when You came into sight
The heartache was gone, the pain was undone
With just one touch of Your, glorious love
You turned it around
INSTRUMENTAL
Now I celebrate, the miracle You did that day
All my tears You wiped away
And filled me with Your joy
Now I praise Your name
The name that's stronger than the grave
The name that has the power to save
And set the captives free
Oh the name of Jesus
You turned it around, death became life
Everything changed when You came into sight
The heartache was gone, the pain was undone
With just one touch of Your, glorious love
You turned it around
Just one touch from You, and all things are new
You reign
Over death and life
You are lifted high
You turned it around, death became life
Everything changed when You came into sight
The heartache was gone, the pain was undone
With just one touch of Your, glorious love
You turned it around
You turned it around
You turned it around
Just one touch from you
And all things are new

The In Between
Words and Music by Chelsi Nikkerud
VERSE
Let’s raise a toast to the day that’s past
To the things we’ve seen
And the friends that last
To the day before
And the one that’s next
We never know what to expect
Every miracle we’ve seenÂ
Every life that has been changed
Just to remember what has beenÂ
Like we’re dreaming wide awake
Will anybody talk about the 12 men at his side
Will they remember all our mistakes
Or will they remember us with prideÂ
The casual conversations
Over meals and on the road
Campfires under starlight
When we felt so far from homeÂ
The brotherhood we’ve built ourselves
With him right by our sideÂ
It was the moments in between
Between you and I
CHORUS
These are the moments
The moments in between
The ones that will love rent free in my mindÂ
These are the momentsÂ
The ones with you and meÂ
That no one will remember,
But we will all rememberÂ
Because these are the days that made us who we areÂ
These are the lessons that we’ve learnedÂ
Together we are greater than we are apart
These, these are the moments in between
VERSE
Do you remember, the day you fell into a ditch
It really sucked but it made me laugh a bit
That one night in Capernaum when you left out all the food
And we woke up to a pack of wolves and we almost died
These are the things that I’ll remember
The moments that you’ll never know
The simple passing days aren’t written in a story
The ones the history books won’t ever showÂ
CHORUS
These are the momentsÂ
The moments in between
The ones that made and make us who we are
These are the momentsÂ
The ones with you and meÂ
That no one will remember,
But we will all rememberÂ
The ones that live forever in our minds
OUTRO
For all the things He’s said and done
For you and for me
For me…it’s the moments in between.

The Well
Words by Emily Arnott
Music by Chelsi Nikkerud
Dark clouds loom
Sunshine fades
This loneliness
Won’t go awayÂ
So throw your stones
Call me shamed
I just carry on
Cause it’s my nameÂ
Who is this man who sees me
Who found me in the darkÂ
How I can trust he wants me
When so many broke my heart
He knows my pastÂ
He saw my life play out like some tragic songÂ
And yet here he is, hand stretched outÂ
Do I take it or am I too far gone
Let me tell you a story
A chapter at a time
A story that I’ve locked safe in my mind
Not a story of fictionÂ
But of who they wanted me to beÂ
I know inside that its not really me
I never know what mask ill wearÂ
Until I’m too far in
But the cracks they start to showÂ
So I’ll turn the pageÂ
And try to start againÂ
This is my storyÂ
There’s no starting over
The choices that I’ve made are on my shoulders
Oh this is my storyÂ
No one can change it
The cross I bare is greater than this saviourÂ
This is my storyÂ
Woah
This is my storyÂ
Redemptions not a word that I know
Forgiveness was not in the pages I was all alone
But could this man be the one
Could he really be the son of God
Whoahhhh
He is my storyÂ
Now I’m starting over
The pain I’ve always felt is on his shoulders
He is my storyÂ
He’s gonna change it
The living water that he gives is greater
OhÂ
This is my story Â

Gracious and Merciful
Words and Music by Sophie Mildenhall
VERSE 1
My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place
When I was woven together in the depths of the earth, Your eyes saw me
All the days and the plans for my life could be read in your book before one of them even came to be
God you saw me, You loved me,Â
You called for my mummy and daddy to guide me to know you…
CHORUS
You are gracious and merciful,Â
Slow to anger, abundant in loving kindness
You are abounding in steadfast love andÂ
Faithfulness to all who call upon you
VERSE 2
You are good,Â
and Your law is for goodÂ
and you want us to follow Your kindness towards each other
When we live out your ways all the earth will be filled with your greatness
And we’ll see the end of all brokennessÂ
CHORUS
You are gracious and merciful,Â
Slow to anger, abundant in loving kindness
You are abounding in steadfast love and
Faithfulness to all who call upon you
BRIDGE
The faithful love of the Lord never ends!
His mercies never cease.
TAG OUT
You are good
You are good
You are good
And your love endures forever
You are good (The faithful love of the Lord never ends!)
You are good (His mercies never cease.)
You are good ((The faithful love of the Lord never ends!))
And forever he will reign

He Embraced Me
VERSE
He saw meÂ
He saw me
And I wasn’t invisible anymore
He smiled
He looked in my eyes
And all of the shame and fear fell away
Nobody ever looked at me like He did
He held my hand and suddenly I wasn’t alone
He didn’t see me as an object or something He could own
He didn’t see me as somebody to overthrow
CHORUSÂ
He embraced me
He reached out His hand and
He embraced me
I knew he’d understand
He wanted meÂ
And now I’m forever changed
He Embraced me
He wasn’t ashamed
He embraced me
He called me by name
He’d chosen me
And now i’m forever changedÂ
CHORUS
He embraced me
He reached out His hand and
He embraced me
I knew he’d understand
He wanted meÂ
And now I’m forever changed
OUTRO
Nothing is holding me back
Nothing is holding me back
Nothing is holding me back
Unless we let it
But I won't let it. Nothing.

Mary Mags
Words and Music by Chelsi Nikkerud
VERSE 1
You see me and you know you wanna have it
Pull you in you could me your bad habit
Make you think this is what I’ve always wanted
What I’ve always wanted
PRE CHORUS
Stars are shooting in the dark
We make a wishÂ
I the music starts
CHORUS
We let go
Let the music play take controlÂ
All it takes is one wordÂ
We all know, all we we’ve got is this night
Let our bodies take flight and say yes to the dark
And let goÂ
We let go
VERSE 2
My eyes burn brighter than the moonlight
But this heart grows tired of losing the fight
Every face blurs, how long can I hold, can I
How can IÂ Â
PRE CHORUS 2
Stars are shooting in the dark
I make a wish
the music starts
Is there a place where I can start…restart
BRIDGE
Get me outÂ
Is there something more
Than this life I’ve wasted
Get me out
If you can hear me
Can you hear me (we let go)
Can you hear me (we let go)
Can you hear me (we let go)
Can you hear me (we let go)
Can you hear me (we let go)
Can you hear me (we let go)
REFRAIN
You’ll say that I was weak
I had no choice
I couldn’t speak
But then HE looked in my eyes
and HE saw the difference between the truth and my disguise
Cause I’m not weak I’m just broken
I’m not weak that’s a lie
I’m not weak I’m just broken
Cause even strong things break sometimesÂ

Fully Human
Words and Music by Chelsi Nikkerud
VERSE 1
The hours drawing nearer
The moments come to fastÂ
My God my God can you hear me
Let this cup pass
It’s like the earth is shakingÂ
My heart drowns out the soundÂ
I know this is my burdenÂ
But let this cup pass
Let it passÂ
VERSE 2
My father can you hear me
I’m ready for the trial
But still there’s dread within me
Let this cup pass
CHORUS
I am God and I am man
But right now I feel fully human
BRIDGE
If you could take this cup awayÂ
So I could live to face another dayÂ
I don’t know if I can bear this painÂ
But if you need me I will stayÂ
But I feel fully humanÂ
Not my will but yours
—
Responsible (The Trial)
Words and Music by Chelsi Nikkerud
PART ONE
VERSE
Oh look at me
I’m the most powerful man in the room
And my God I’ve got really great shoesÂ
How could you miss me?
Seriously?
LOOK AT ME!
Do you really have nothing to sayÂ
Your lack of words just get in your wayÂ
I can’t tell if you're listeningÂ
You say that you hear the voice God and he’s your dadÂ
Can you see how that sort of thing makes men like us real madÂ
CHORUS
I’m Responsible, responsibleÂ
You know I have the power
I mean, I'm sitting in my tower
Yet you drag this on and on it’s just
A drag!Â
Responsible, you’re responsibleÂ
Under oath in front of GodÂ
Can you say that you are the oneÂ
The Christ that we’ve been waiting for Its you?
You say that’s true?
Let Pilot decide!
PART TWO
VERSE
Last night I couldn’t sleepÂ
Because these eyes filled my dreams
They were eyes so full kindness and loveÂ
It’s something I can’t explain
But then now he’s here and it’s plain to seeÂ
There is something about this man that’s familiar to me
Familiar to me
He’s so familiar to meÂ
CHORUS
It’s his eyes
The same eyes from last night
The ones that burned so bright
The ones that could change my life
It’s his eyes
Even now I can hear him call
I wish you could’ve seen what I saw
I swear, He could be the one to change it all
I’m afraid that if you say a single word against his nameÂ
That you’ll be judged in a way you can’t escape fromÂ
My love heed my wordÂ
Just stay out of itÂ
PRE CHORUS
You say that the choice it lies within my hands its true
But i just think you’re saying that because you don’t want to… be
CHORUS
Responsible, responsibleÂ
You say you want the power
Then we it becomes the hour
What you really want it plausible,Â
DeniabilityÂ
Responsible, responsibleÂ
Oh to wear the crown is heavyÂ
Yes I know it might sound dandyÂ
But you guys i just don’t know what I would do, if I was you
I’m not responsibleÂ
CHORUS
Responsible, responsibleÂ
I feel so elated
Yeah well I feel nauseated Â
This all on you and your crew and not me…
Oh come on Piley have a little fun!Â
Responsible, responsibleÂ
History will remember that we
Saved the world from danger
When we said the words that changed it allÂ
Just two
CRUCIFY HIM!

How Could I
Words and Music by Chelsi Nikkerud
VERSE 1
All my life I’ve waited
For the one who’s as said to comeÂ
I expected something different
But instead what I got was love
But instead what I got was love
He saw me in my weakness
A man pulled from side to side
Broken drifting jaded
And yet still he said your mine
CHORUS 1
So how I could I
How could IÂ
Deny
The one who had brought me life
How could IÂ
How could I
Deny, Him
VERSE 2
I know just what their thinking
I can see it in their eyesÂ
I feel the weight of the shame I carry
I deserve all the hate for my lies
Forever the world will despise, me
CHORUSÂ
So How could IÂ
How could I
How could IÂ
How could I
deny
Betray himÂ
The one who had brought me to life
So How could IÂ
why did I
how could IÂ
why did I
deny
Betray
HimÂ
BRIDGE
I know nothing can change the past
My betrayal of him it will outlast
My hope, is inÂ
the one who saw that I was a weak man and yet he chose me
Dear God, what have I done what have I done
Take me, back into your loving arms
I don’t, deserve the love thatÂ
you freely gave me
I’ll never deserve it
But…
I’ll never deserve it…
but I know…
I’ll never deserve it, I’m done
OUTRO
Oh you’re never done
There’s always more love to give
You’re never done with anyone
You’re love, I’m never beyond it
I’m never beyond it
If I just believe it

A Mother's Last LullabyÂ
Words and Music by Chelsi Nikkerud
MOTHER MARY:
One look all it took was one look
And I knew you were mine
One touch all it took was just one touchÂ
When I took your hand in mineÂ
That was it I was spoken for again
Like the first day I drew breath and God knew my name
I know your nameÂ
My babyÂ
Hush now don’t you cry
I know that I’m not perfect but I’m yours and you are mine
My babyÂ
From now and for all time
The world might know you different
But forever you are mineÂ
One breathÂ
All it took was just one breathÂ
When I first heard your cry I was done
As I held you in my arms
Nothing and no one could take you away from me I thought
This is not what we planned and I don’t understand why your gone
My babyÂ
How could you not let me knowÂ
That id go to bed your mother
And wake up all alone
My babyÂ
I know there’s a greater plan
But right now I’m just angry
I do not understandÂ
This was meant to be a story of victoryÂ
I thought you were bringing us freedom but what I feel miseryÂ
JOSEPH:
Mary will these do? (holds cloth for burial)
MOTHER MARY:
Yes, thank you Joseph
JOSEPH:
Mary, will these do? (holds up swaddling cloth)
YOUNG MARY:
Yes, thank you joseph
MOTHER MARY:
But I know in heaven their singing holyÂ
Yes I know deep down we’ll all be singing holyÂ
YOUNG MARY:
u-feraumusqehun la'alaha, utra'amtahun le-brah-'alme'ta.
u-la'alaha 'atiquhi dib-khad,
u-alpikhun kunshaÂ
MOTHER MARY:
Holy
Is the precious lamb of godÂ
The one bore our suffering
The one I’ll always love
HolyÂ
The one who took our painÂ
That history will remember
The world won’t be the sameÂ
