Opposite Way - Leeland
CD: Opposite Way
Living in the same
town
For all these years
Doing the same old
things
Hanging with the same
crowd
And it’s starting to get
crippling
You’ve never felt in
place
And you tell yourself
it’s all okay
But something’s
different today
You want to run the
opposite way
And it seems like you’re
locked in a cage
And you need to find a
way of escape
When everyone is setting
the pace
It’s okay to run the
opposite way
The Father sent His Son
down
The light of men
The cross He bore was
crippling
Rejected in His own town
They couldn’t see the
sun shining
He knelt in the garden
and prayed
Father, let this cup
pass from me
It’s not Your will for
me to stay
Your will for me is the
opposite way
And it seemed like He
was locked in a cage
And He couldn’t find
away of escape
But through the cross He
conquered the grave
My Jesus ran the
opposite way
Oh, and through the
cross
He conquered the grave
Oh, He ran the opposite
way
Yeah,
Through the cross He
conquered the grave
So you could run the
opposite way
