Sing a New Song: “Made Alive” by Citizens
If you like 80’s style music you will probably like to sing today’s new song. It is entitled Made Alive by Citizens and was released in March of 2013. More important than the style are the lyrics which are very strong. Made Alive presents bold Scriptural truth without apology. We are by nature objects of wrath, dead in sin, alone and hopeless. God reached us in his love and kindness and made us alive in Christ. Believers are never the same. There are some nice contrasts are in the lyrics as well — light vs. darkness, death vs. life, wrath vs. mercy, etc. This new song correctly uses Law & Gospel and makes you want to sing.
Scripture references include Colossians 2:13, Ephesians 2:1, Romans 6:11, Romans 5:19, Romans 3:20-21, Ephesians 2:8-9, John 8:12, John 9:5, and John 3:19.
