Contemporary Christian singer Kari Jobe has come back with her new single, Forever, and it is magnificent! Wow! The lyrics of Forever are absolutely beautiful, poetic in their simplicity, but they speak such truth! I can’t believe it; I was in tears two minutes into the song! Brian Johnson, Christa Black Gifford, Gabriel Wilson, Jenn Johnson, Joel Taylor and Jobe have penned a worship anthem that needs to be heard throughout the nations. Breathtaking. This video of Forever features spoken word from Issac Wimberly, worship pastor at the Dallas campus of The Village Church, that just serves to underscore the glory of the gospel. Fantastic.
Will Kari Jobe’s Forever be a Top 10? In my book, it deserves to go straight to number one. But it makes no difference — this will be a worship classic, count on it.
FOREVER Lyrics
Kari Jobe
The moon and stars they wept
The morning sun was dead
The Savior of the world was fallen
His body on the cross
His blood poured out for us
The weight of every curse upon Him
One final breath He gave
As Heaven looked away
The Son of God was laid in darkness
A battle in the grace
The war on death was waged
The power of Hell forever broken
The ground began to shake
The stone was rolled away
His perfect love could not be overcome
Now death where is your sting
Our resurrected King has rendered you defeated
Forever He is glorified
Forever He is lifted high
Forever He is risen
He is alive He is alive
We sing hallelujah
We sing hallelujah
We sing hallelujah
The Lamb has overcome
