ooberfuse - His Blood Cries Out.


Many of you have, but some of you may not have heard the soon to be released song by British Christian band ooberfuse, written in memory of Shahbaz Bhatti. The band teamed with the British Pakistani Christian Association in creating an awesome visual presentation that emulates the emotions of many, especially these days with the upcoming First Anniversary of the death of Martyr Shahbaz Bhatti. The song is to be played at a rally that BPCA will be holding in tribute to Shabaz, and as a protest for the continued and intensified persecution taking place against Christians in Pakistan.

I think it's awesome. I am so proud of my brothers and sisters in Christ for their creativity and vision. They've given new life to our mission to end persecution with their battle cry: HIS BLOOD CRIES OUT.

Thanks to Cherrie Anderson & Wilson Chowdhry for sending me the video, and to ooberfuse and BPCA for this song.

Take a look at this tribute here (lyrics posted below):




Verse 1
These are the hands
They praise the life of you
These are the veins
Your life and love flow through
These are the words we try to write for you
We sing this song

Chorus
His blood cries out
His blood cries out

Verse 2
Peace is the star
That guides our hearts to you
Hear all the angels
How they sing for you
These are the words we try to write for you
Help us to erase
This war, this rage
We need to turn the page and
Find true peace within love's heart
In the silence hear the shout
His blood cries out

Chorus
His blood cries out
His blood cries out

Verse 3
These are the prayers
Helpless and the weak
His was the voice
For those that couldn't speak
For this we cry
Freedom, Love and Peace
What have you done
This war, this rage,
We need to turn the page and
Find true peace within love's heart
In the silence hear the shout
His blood cries out

Chorus
His blood cries out
His blood cries out
