Go Tell His Family - Lin Pacific

The bones of the martyrs 
piled high as a hill, -
Though lions and fire devour – 
they love Him still!
Each saint the cruel foe 
Burned deep on their mind
Had others convicted 
with blood-ties that bind.

[Chorus]
Go tell His family 
just how the foe designs
The capture of the Man 
who’s not safe in God’s arms
The capture of the Man
Not safe in God’s arms
God’s loving arms 
Loving arms

So, bound as family, 
held close with His love
Which poured like a tide 
from the Father above.
This living tide swelling their hearts – 
they could see, 
Distinctly, the relinking 
of Man’s family tree.

[Bridge]
Not by father or mother 
but by rebirth
Can assure you a place 
in His Family on earth,
God’s family,? yes, His family,
Up in heaven from this Earth 

Resemblance in manner 
His child can be seen
Walking in His image 
with hearts that are clean. 
Though the foe be enraged 
to destroy, it is shown
Foe’s final intent is: -
“I want the Throne!”

[Chorus]
Go tell His family 
just how the foe designs
The capture of the Man 
who’s not safe in God’s arms
The capture of the Man
Not safe in God’s arms
God’s loving arms 
Loving arms
 
So the Father hid His loved ones 
in the bosom of the hills.
Far from fire, far from foe’s lies 
and twisting of their wills.
There He nurtured and He held them 
and He healed their awful pain.
There He strengthened, and prepared them 
for the coming early rain.

[Chorus]
Go tell His family 
just how the foe designs
The capture of the Man 
who’s not safe in God’s arms
The capture of the Man
Not safe in God’s arms
God’s loving arms 
Loving arms

Time was ripe, 
His Son would come as Man, 
to overcome the foe,
And Man would first-hand see The Word, 
His Father’s love to show
Go tell those in His family 
just how the foe designs
The capture of the Man 
who is not safe in God’s confines.

[Chorus]
Go tell His family 
just how the foe designs
The capture of the Man 
who’s not safe in G
