Jesus lost all his glory so that we could be clothed in it. He was
shut out so we could get access. He was bound, nailed, so that
we could be free. He was cast out so we could approach. And
Jesus took away the only kind of suffering that can really destroy
you: that is being cast away from God. He took so that now all
suffering that comes into your life will only make you great. A
lump of coal under pressure becomes a diamond. And the
suffering of a person in Christ only turns you into somebody
gorgeous.” Timothy Keller Walking with God through pain and
Suffering Pg 180,181
Scripture
We do this by keeping our eyes on Jesus, the champion who
initiates and perfects our faith. Because of the joy awaiting
him, he endured the cross, disregarding its shame. Now he is
seated in the place of honor beside God’s throne. Think of all the
hostility he endured from sinful people; then you won’t
become weary and give up. After all, you have not yet given your
lives in your struggle against sin. Hebrews 12:2-4 NLT

Jesus High Applejaxx

He’s the way that truth enlights, trust in him, he’ll make you right
He’s the one that keeps me tight, every day we lift him high
I’m on that Jesus high, I’m on that Jesus high
He’s the way that you’ve been led, trust him, he’ll make you right
He’s the one that keeps me tight, every day we lift him high
I’m on that Jesus high, I’m on that Jesus high
Singing in … highly enlifted, image of the lion
bring peace and justice
..and hit the stone seen defenseless, rose in the third day,
that’s the business
Christ is, before anyone was, Christ did before anyone does
Look, the power’s unmatched, all inspiring, grace is so …, amen
Wisdom and mercy, he’s the only one that really is worth it
If you want to win it know, is the one you need to know
He’s the way that truth enlights, trust him, he’ll make you right
He’s the one that keeps me tight, every day we lift him high
I’m on that Jesus high, I’m on that Jesus high
He’s the way that you’ve been led, trust him, he’ll make you right
He’s the one that keeps me tight, every day we lift him high
I’m on that Jesus high, I’m on that Jesus high
I don’t smoke or drink, keep your heart sober, the word is the key
Playing ball cross over got you slicking, …stretched out the plaque …like I’m pipping
Christ is, before anyone was, Christ did before anyone does
And so I spend time in his presence, …in the zone is where you get your blessing, yeah
Inner man stay fly, I keep a swag low so Christ is lifted high
If you want to really know, is the one you need to know
He’s the way that truth enlights, trust in him, he’ll make you right
He’s the one that keeps me tight, every day we lift him high
I’m on that Jesus high, I’m on that Jesus high
He’s the way that you’ve been led, trust him, he’ll make you right
He’s the one that keeps me tight, every day we lift him high
I’m on that Jesus high, I’m on that Jesus high
Check me out, I’m on that Jesus high, eternal style, put the hands to the sky
We got the block … flame travel to Mars, keep the style
…to rise a propane
Future and the sound let’s make a good thing
Most of rappers talk about catching soul…
With blue lava, who’s gonna stop us, … start the land but blue …
I ain’t king of the earth, Christ be supreme, when I wash the dirt off, so I keep the soul clean though
… skip the flavor, you’re here with the singles, I like Pringles
He’s the way that truth enlights, trust in him, he’ll make you right
He’s the one that keeps me tight, every day we lift him high
I’m on that Jesus high, I’m on that Jesus high
He’s the way that truth enlights, trust in him, he’ll make you right
He’s the one that keeps me tight, every day we lift him high
I’m on that Jesus high, I’m on that Jesus high.
