Matthew 11 — Come and See
(Song Lyrics — Hybrid Style)
Verse 1 — The Question from the Cell
From behind iron bars, a question was sent,
A prophet waiting where hope felt bent.
“Are You the One, or do we still wait?”
When chains press hard, even faith can shake.
Jesus answered with works made plain,
The blind now see, the lame regain.
Good news preached to the poor and small—
Blessed is the one not offended at all.
Pre-Chorus
Not every promise comes clothed in ease,
Some faith must breathe through mystery.
Chorus — Come and See
Come and see what mercy has done,
The Kingdom moves where hearts run undone.
Not as expected, not loud or proud,
But power is moving among the bowed.
Come and see — do not turn away,
Blessed are those who trust His way.
Verse 2 — More Than a Prophet
Crowds leaned in as Jesus spoke,
“Did you come for reeds that bend and break?”
Not silk and ease, not royal halls,
But a voice that thundered repentance calls.
Born of women, none greater stood,
Yet the least now enters what he only viewed.
The Kingdom suffers violent strain,
As forceful hearts push through the pain.
Chorus — Come and See
Come and see what heaven revealed,
The last are first, the wounds are healed.
From wilderness cries to prison walls,
The Kingdom comes when the humble call.
Come and see — do not delay,
The door is open… today.
Verse 3 — A Generation Unmoved
We played the flute — you would not dance,
We sang a dirge — you took no stance.
John came fasting, you said he was mad,
The Son came feasting — still you were sad.
Wisdom stands though the crowd complains,
Proven right by what remains.
Bridge — Woe to the Unrepentant
Woe to the cities that saw it all,
Miracles done, yet hearts still stalled.
Tyre and Sidon would have turned fast,
Sodom would stand if it’d seen this path.
Light rejected grows heavier still,
Truth ignored does not lose its will.
Final Chorus — Come and See / Come and Rest
Come and see… then come and choose,
Light received or truth refused.
Come to Me, you weary and worn,
Crushed by religion, burdened and torn.
My yoke is easy, My burden is light,
Rest is found when you trust My life.
Outro
Hidden from proud, revealed to the small,
The Father’s joy outshines it all.
The question stands, the answer is near—
Will you be offended… or come and rest here?
