 From the borders of the City of David - Were prophets from the Lord; they tell - A legend of Godʼs people and His faithfulness to Israel - Chorus - Inside the city walls - He taught and loved and prayed - Tears of blood ran down His face, For us all - Along her streets He bore the cross - Outside the gates, our sins atoned - And from the tomb He rose Jerusalem - Shadowed by the wood of Gethsemane - Consecrated to the point of death - May this cup be taken from me - “Yet not as I will, but as you will.” - Chorus - Bridge - All the bleeding of our sins to Him that died on Calvary - Never ceasing to remit - His love nailed to that tree - From the Mt of Olives to Kidron Valley - At the East Gate stands the Lord of Hosts - Passing westward through the halls of the Temple - Past the lamp and showbread He will rule - Chorus

Your Love, Upon the Cross Sam Negron, Mark Negron I breathe deep with desire, to serve You , in all my ways - And I know it wasn’t easy, to put down the crown of God , for my sake - Chorus - Your love was nailed upon the cross , nailed upon the cross, nailed upon the cross for me - I once lived in the valley, that longed to reach up to You - And I wondered of Your secrets, that no heart could fathom in the flesh - Chorus - Until Your love was nailed upon the cross, nailed upon the cross, nailed upon the cross for me - Someday this side of heaven, I’ll rejoice to see You face to face - But for now, my Lord, my sweet Jesus - Give me faith, to praise You boldly, in this place - Your love was....

about

The genesis of the EastGate Project emerged while sitting on the Mt. of Olives overlooking the Kidron Valley, peering toward the Golden (East) Gate of ancient Jerusalem. For those fortunate to visit, what a moving and pensive site to behold. The seeming timelessness of that moment conjured thoughts of Jesus himself observing and contemplating that his (first) coming would not be recognized by many, but he would be rejected and persecuted. Yet, here I sat in the shadows of history considering his sacrifice while simultaneously acknowledging the future - reflecting upon his second coming! In fact upon this very location - unmatched throughout the ages - will the foretold ‘Lord of Lords and King of Kings’ triumphantly open the gates of a new era; His manifest entrance to the Temple of Jerusalem.

The EastGate Project became a touchstone in my life: to tell a story and reflect upon such a wondrous transformation of the world. To proclaim and anticipate the good news. You’re invited - to lend an ear, engage and wonder; What Is Man? In the process, may you be changed... thanks for listening.
