Josh Wilson, “Jesus Is Alive”

For the record, I like Josh Wilson. He has a clear, distinctive voice that showcases the emotion and passion of every song he sings. His biggest hit – I Refuse – is one such example, as was Before The Morning, his first Top 10 hit. On Wilson’s first Christmas single, Jesus Is Alive, Wilson showcases that powerful voice again in his retelling of the Christmas story. Ideal for use in churches and on radio, Wilson hits another one outta the ballpark; Jesus Is Alive has the same kind of powerful storytelling passion that Chris August has in his own retelling, Jesus Savior. Both men actually have a lot of common, and I’d be hard-pressed to select which of the two singles I prefer. So, I’ll tell you what I think: I’d get both. If you’re in the mood for a Christmas song that tells the Yuletide story, once again, Josh Wilson has us covered. *grin*

JESUS IS ALIVE Lyrics
Josh Wilson

Wish that I was there,
On that silent night,
When your tiny heart started beating for mine,

I wish I could have seen,
The star in David’s town,
When you turned a stable into Holy ground.
I sing along, the angels song.

Noel! Noel! Jesus is alive!
Emmanuel, hope is here tonight!
So go, and tell, the world that death has died
‘Cause Jesus is alive
Yeah, Jesus is alive

VERSE 2
The God who made us all,
With these two little hands,
Is bringing us his kingdom quiet as a lamb.
Oh such Amazing Grace!
A divine conspiracy.
This Savior in a manger changes everything.
That’s why we sing.

Noel! Noel! Jesus is alive!
Emmanuel, hope is here tonight!
So go, and tell, the world that death has died
‘Cause Jesus is alive
Yeah, Jesus is alive

Sin you have no sting.
Hell you have no power. (Jesus is alive)
Curse you are no more.
This is your final hour. (Jesus is alive)
Because the son of God
Has not left us alone. (Jesus is alive)
He’ll live and die and rise again, and then he’ll bring us home. (Jesus is alive)
The old will pass away
And we will become new. (Jesus is alive)
This baby boy is making all sad things untrue.

Noel! Noel! Jesus is alive!
Emmanuel, hope is here tonight!
So go, and tell, the world that death has died
‘Cause Jesus is alive
Yeah, Jesus is alive
Jesus is alive
Jesus is alive
