Passover Lamb
by Flame

Album: Christ For You

Intro
So you jump from the Lord's Supper passage to the "I AM" statements?
That's weird, facts

Verse 1
Jesus said He is the Vine (HE ain't lying)
But that passage is a different kind (No parallel)
Than the Supper one He instituted (They not related)
Don't believe me, okay, let me prove it (What HE say then?)
Jesus took the bread and said that this his body (Did HE not?)
Then he took the cup and told them this his blood (Read it, read it)
If he's holding bread and wine and use the word is (Look it up)
In that sentence please show me where is the metaphor (I'll wait, I'll wait)
The only move you got is to re-define (Only move)
What is means, to say it symbolizes (That's it, oh)
Now you're changing words, changing definitions (Okay)
I thought you were Sola Scriptura, ain't that your position (Switchin')
Oh, that's right, you're modern man (Ta-ta-da-daa)
You reject the fathers and the rules of grammar then (That's right)
The enlightenment, sheesh, it finessed us all (We cocky)
We are rejecting Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, and Paul
Wow!

Chorus
Jesus is the Great I Am
See the parallels
Jesus the Passover Lamb
Did they eat the lamb
Yes yes, they ate the lamb (Literally)
Did they eat the lamb
Yes yes, they ate the lamb
For real

Verse 2
Jesus said I am the Vine
Jesus said I am the door (T-H-E)
Interpret this the way you want to do it
Got the Scriptures saying Jesus represents the door
But that don't make sense does it
Jesus is the Vine
He is the life source
And the way to get to God
Plus He said "The" vine
Not "a" vine
Some random vine
Some random door, better be careful making metaphors
Plus He said I am the way, the truth, and life (the Light)
Resurrection and the life, I'm the bread of life
Want to make the "I Am" statements the symbolic type
Like "I Am" that "I Am," that's denying Christ
Yes he used some symbolism here to make his point
Don't miss his point, to the truths though to which they point
These passages are not parallel with the other
He's not holding objects up like the Lord Supper

Chorus
Jesus is the Great I Am
See the parallels
Jesus the Passover Lamb
Did they eat the lamb
Yes yes, they ate the lamb (Literally)
Did they eat the lamb
Yes yes, they ate the lamb
For real
Jesus is the Great I Am
See the parallels
Jesus the Passover Lamb
Did they eat the lamb
Yes yes, they ate the lamb (Literally)
Did they eat the lamb
Yes yes, they ate the lamb
For real

Outro
Whoever feeds on my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life
And I will raise him up on the last day
For my flesh is true food and my blood is true drink
Whoever feeds on my flesh and drinks my blood abides in Me and I in him
When many of the disciples heard it they said, "This is a hard saying, who can listen to it?"
After this, many of his disciples turned back and no longer walked with Him
