    God Paid the Cost Himself in Christ

    "God Paid the Cost Himself in Christ” By Zeres Vitto #zeresvitto #GodpaidthecostHimselfinChrist #everlastinggospel #everyone Verse 1 – Genesis In Eden’s dawn when trust was torn, A promise whispered through the fall, The Seed would come, the cost be borne, God would not abandon all. On Moriah’s hill a father climbed, Wood on the back of the promised son, The knife was raised, the heart was tried, But Heaven said, “It is not done.” Pre-Chorus A ram appeared where death had stood, Blood in the thorns, mercy understood, A shadow cast across all time, Of love that pays what law requires. Chorus God paid the cost Himself in Christ, His Son stepped down, the Lamb was slain. What justice asked, love sacrificed, Grace was written in His pain. From altar stone to Calvary’s tree, From oath to oath, from scar to scar, The price was paid eternally, Behold the cost… behold God’s Lamb! Verse 2 – The Cross No angel stayed the Father’s hand When heaven’s Son hung cursed and torn. The sky grew dark, the earth couldn’t stand, As God hid His face that morn. The fire fell, the wrath was spent, Not on the sinner—but on the Son. The cry was real, the veil was rent, Redemption’s cost forever paid. Pre-Chorus The law was honored, mercy free, The cross became the mercy seat, Where truth and grace in anguish met, And love refused to count the debt. Chorus God paid the cost Himself in Christ, His Son stepped down, the Lamb was slain. What justice asked, love sacrificed, Grace was written in His pain. From altar stone to Calvary’s tree, From oath to oath, from scar to scar, The price was paid eternally, 3:33 Behold the cost… behold God’s Lamb! Verse 3 – Resurrection & Intercession He rose still marked by open wounds, The scars not erased, but glorified. Before the throne, forever He stands, Our living proof, our crucified. Hands that bled now plead our case, Feet once pierced now tread heaven’s temple The wounded Lamb in royal grace Still bears the cost forevermore. Bridge – Revelation And over God's throne a rainbow stands, A covenant sealed by wounded hands. Mercy remembers, judgment past, Love’s vow unbroken, holding fast. The redeemed rise, a living sign, Of blood-bought hope, of grace divine, Every face, every song declares The cost was paid… and we are there. Final Chorus God paid the cost Himself in Christ, The scars still speak though death is gone. Eternal proof of love’s great price, The Lamb still bears what He has done. From Genesis to endless days, From promise sworn to promise sealed, All heaven sings, all time will say: The cost was paid: God’s love revealed. Outro – Eternity No more death, no final tear, Yet still the scars remain in sight, Not as wounds, but as trophies clear, Of love that conquered endless night. And ages roll, yet this remains: A throne, a Lamb, a rainbow bright, God forever remembers the cost, God paid the cost Himself in Christ his love forever we’ll behold

    One Olive Tree

    ONE OLIVE TREE By Zeres Vitto #zeresvitto #oneolivetree #everyone Verse 1 At the foot of Sinai the promise came, Yet human vows could not remain; The law is holy, just, and good, But hearts grew dim and lost the light. Then Christ, the promised Seed of old, Fulfilled the covenant by His blood, Now pleads for us before the throne; He calls all souls to come and live. Pre-Chorus Not by descent, nor claim, nor birth, Nor works of men upon the earth; But by the Lamb, the truth, the way, Accepted in Christ in judgment’s hour. Chorus One Olive Tree, one covenant— One Savior, Mediator and Judge. Be grafted in by living faith, abide in Him and live— In Christ alone the branches stand, Abide in Him—the source of life. Verse 2 Some trust in lineage, ancient name, Some trust in works or fervent claim; Not all who spring from Israel’s line Are heirs within the promise divine. Branches are broken through unbelief, And stand by faith restored in Him; Grafted in by grace alone, All stand by faith before the throne. Pre-Chorus 2 No temple built by human hands, No earthly rites can cleanse from sin; Our High Priest ministers above, And intercedes for us within.. Chorus One Olive Tree, one covenant— One Savior, Mediator and Judge. Be grafted in by living faith, abide in Him and live— In Christ alone the branches stand, Abide in Him—the source of life. Bridge The hour of judgment now has come, The books are opened—every one; Our names reviewed before the throne, By Christ who claims us as His own. No other name beneath the sky, No other way by which we rise; The law stands firm, yet grace is shown— In Christ alone we stand by faith. Verse 3 The everlasting gospel sounds To every nation, tribe, and tongue: “Fear God and give Him glory now, For judgment’s hour has now begun.” Babylon falls—her wine deceives, Her falsehood binds the souls of men; “Come out of her, My people, now, And worship Him who made all things. And worship not the beast or mark, But stand with Christ, the Lamb of God.” Final Chorus One Olive Tree, one covenant— One Savior, Mediator and Judge. Be grafted in by living faith—before probation close— In Christ alone the branches stand, Abide in Him while mercy flows. Outro One covenant fulfilled in Christ, One law engraved in heart and mind; One Judge, one Lamb, one destiny— Abide in Christ, the Olive Tree.

    Weighed and Blotted Out

    WEIGHED AND BLOTTED OUT By Zeres Vitto VERSE 1 — The Holy Throne In heaven’s courts the temple stands, The ark upholds God’s law divine; Ten commandments by His own hand— His covenant through all of time. The Sabbath bears His sacred seal, The Lord of all—both near and far; Of worlds unseen and angels bright, Before this earth and all its stars. REFRAIN The books are opened before the throne, Each life revealed, each deed made known; God’s holy law—the measure true, It weighs the heart and searches you. While mercy pleads, names yet may stand, Through Jesus’ blood, by pierced hand; When sins are retained at judgment’s call, Their names are blotted out. VERSE 2 — Profaned Worship Strange fire burns on sacred ground, Man’s will now leads where God has spoken; His holy law is trampled down, His sacred covenant lies broken. They touch the ark with human hands, They change the times the Lord has set; “They command what God has never said, And claim it truth—deceived, unafraid.” VERSE 3 — The Feast of Babylon A golden cup is lifted high, The wine of error floods the land; They praise their gods, deny the Most High, Profaning what God made holy. Like Belshazzar in pride and sin, Who knew the truth yet chose the lie— The hand that wrote now testifies: “Thou art weighed—and found wanting.” REFRAIN The books are opened before the throne, Each life revealed, each deed made known; God’s holy law—the measure true, It weighs the heart and searches you. While mercy pleads, names yet may stand, Through Jesus’ blood, by pierced hand; When sins are retained at judgment’s call, Their names are blotted out. VERSE 4 — The Final Test Where truth once shone within the courts, Abominations rise before Him; A decree goes forth—compelling all To worship powers set against Him The beast receives the worship claimed, Yet all who bow, bow down to Satan; A mark is set on hand or mind— But those who keep His Sabbath stand. BRIDGE — Close of Probation The door will close—no voice within, No blood to plead, no grace extended; The censer falls—the work is done, The day of mercy now is ended. From out the temple angels go, With bowls of wrath unmixed with grace; The plagues descend on those who chose To cast God’s truth and law away. FINAL REFRAIN The books are opened—even now, Before the Judge let every heart bow. God’s holy law—the measure true— In Christ alone you’re counted true. For when His work of grace is done, No voice to plead, no intercessor; Each case is fixed for life or death— Once weighed—no change can e’er be made.

    Babylon is Fallen, is Fallen - Revised Version

    Babylon Is Fallen, Is Fallen Revised By Zeres Vitto VERSE 1 — Ancient Rebellion From Babel’s tower nations rose To build kingdoms against their God; But heaven scattered all their pride When truth was lost and boasting stood. From Nimrod’s reign to Daniel’s day A golden empire ruled the earth; And kingdoms rise and crumble down— For Christ the Rock will end their boast. REFRAIN Babylon is fallen, is fallen— Her fading glory turns to dust. Her wine deceives the nations still With doctrines born of fraud and lust. Yet God still calls His people, “Come out and stand apart!” For Babylon is fallen— Let truth awaken every heart. VERSE 2 — The Medieval Power Through ages dark a power arose Where church and state were tightly wed; Traditions clothed in Scripture’s robe Replaced God’s law immutable. A woman rides the scarlet beast, Her golden cup with error’s wine; The beast she rides wore out the saints— And prophecy shows its power shall rise again. REFRAIN Babylon is fallen, is fallen— Her kingdoms cannot stand. She alters times and sacred law Against the Lord’s command. But Christ preserves His remnant, Who guard His Word and Name; For Babylon is fallen— And soon will drink God’s wrath proclaimed. VERSE 3 — The End-Time Confederacy Three spirits foul like croaking frogs Form earth’s unholy trinity— The Dragon—through spiritualism works, The Beast—Papal Rome’s apostasy, The False Prophet—fallen Protestantism, Speaking with a dragon’s breath. They bind the nations to one creed, To enforce the Beast’s decree. The world drinks deep deception’s wine Till drunkenness leads to their fall. REFRAIN Babylon is fallen, is fallen— Her sins reach Heaven’s throne. Her merchants mourn her fallen throne, Lament her power overthrown. But God calls forth His people, “Come out, My people dear! Partake not in her judgments— For heaven’s hour draws near!” VERSE 4 — The Loud Cry & Deliverance A mighty angel now descends To swell the threefold message loud; God’s glory shines through all His saints As latter rain gives power to speak. Aloud they cry, “Come out of her, Before probation’s door is closed!” The Shepherd’s voice rings loud and clear— Countless arise to heed the call. They worship Him who made all things Receive His Sabbath and His seal. FINAL REFRAIN (CLIMAX) Babylon is fallen, is fallen— Her crumbling throne revealed. Her union with the powers of earth Enforces Sunday sacredness. The Mark of the Beast spreads abroad— The Loud Cry goes forth from on high. Countless enter the Shepherd’s fold, Sealed before probation’s close. TAG (FINAL DECLARATION) Babylon is fallen, is fallen— Her crumbling throne revealed. Her dried-up Euphrates clears the way— The battle lines of earth are drawn!

    Before the Winds Are Loosed

    “Before the Winds Are Loosed” is a prophetic anthem that traces the unfolding timeline of last-day events through the lens of historicist biblical prophecy. The song begins with the “birth pains” of a troubled world—wars, unrest, and natural upheaval—just as Jesus foretold in the Olivet discourse, and moves through the great prophetic signs that marked the beginning of the time of the end. While much of the world looks for prophetic fulfillment in earthly events, the song shifts the focus to the heavenly sanctuary where Christ ministers within the veil and the investigative judgment is now in session. It reveals that the winds of global strife are being divinely restrained while God seals His faithful remnant, but warns that this mercy will not last forever. As probation nears its close and the fall of Babylon approaches, the song crescendos into an urgent appeal: choose the Lamb now, while grace is still offered and before the winds are finally released. Before the Winds Are Loosed By Zeres Vitto Verse 1 — The Beginning of Sorrows Hear thunder rolling on the horizon, The distant sound of marching feet; The nations speak in sharpened thunder, And broken peace lies in the street. The oceans groan beneath the pressure, The mountains tremble without a word; A restless world is breathing faster— Just as our Savior long foretold. “These are but birth pains,” He declared, “The end is near—but not yet there.” Pre-Chorus — The Heavenly Court While many watch an earthly temple, And search Jerusalem for signs; A greater court is now in session— The books of heaven open wide. For Christ now stands within the veil, And judgment vindicates God’s name. Chorus — Mercy Still Speaks Before the winds are loosed in power, Before probation’s closing hour, The Lamb still stands within the veil, His wounded hands still intercede. The court of heaven waits today, While grace is offered still to all; The storm is rising—mercy calls— Come while His mercy still is free. Verse 2 — Our Place in Time The earth once shook in mighty warning, The sun grew dark, the moon like blood; The stars fell blazing from the sky— The sky proclaimed the signs of God. The seventh trumpet sounds through history, Not in a moment—but through years; And angels hold the winds of strife, Till servants bear the Father’s seal. The nations rage—but God restrains, While heaven seals His faithful ones. Pre-Chorus — The Sealing From eastern skies an angel rose, The seal of the living God he holds: “Harm not the earth, nor sea, nor trees, Till God’s last remnant bear His seal.” For heaven holds the winds in check, Till all His faithful bear His seal— A people firm in truth and grace, Prepared to stand before His face. Chorus — Mercy Still Speaks Before the winds are loosed in power, Before probation’s closing hour, The Lamb still stands within the veil, His wounded hands still intercede. The court of heaven waits today, While grace is offered still to all; The storm is rising—mercy calls— Come while His mercy still is free. Bridge — The Urgency But when the temple falls to silence, And intercession’s voice is still; When Michael stands and mercy closes, And every case has been revealed— No cry of late regret shall echo, No change of heart can shift the scale; Then plagues descend with wrath unmixed, And false alliances will fail. Babylon’s towers start to crumble, The kings shall turn in sudden flame; Yet those who trust in Christ their refuge Will stand secure in Jesus’ name. Final Chorus — The Appeal Before the winds are loosed in power, Before the final sealing hour, Choose now the Lamb who once was slain, Who bore your guilt and bore your shame. The birth pains shake—but mercy calls; They warn before the curtain falls. The hour is late—do not delay; Come while probation still remains. Outro — Quiet Hope These are the early cries of labor, Not wrath—but mercy’s final plea; O soul, while heaven’s door stands open, Let Christ alone your righteousness be.

    When the Goose Faced the Flame - The Great Controversy Chapter 6 - Hus and Jerome

    "When the Goose Faced the Flame" is an epic, prophetic retelling of Chapter 6 of The Great Controversy (1888), tracing the courage of Jan Hus and Jerome of Prague within the historicist framework of Daniel 7 and Revelation 13. Set against the backdrop of the Council of Constance and the medieval union of church and state, the song portrays Hus’ stand for the supremacy of Scripture and liberty of conscience as a fulfillment of the prophecy that the “little horn” would wear out the saints. His martyrdom—symbolized by the goose before the flame—becomes not a defeat but a witness, anticipating both the Reformation that followed and the final remnant who will face a similar test of allegiance at the end of time. The song ultimately lifts the listener’s gaze from earthly judgment to heaven’s court, affirming that though earthly powers condemn, the Lamb reigns, and the kingdom will be given to the saints. #zeresvitto #TheGreatControversy #ProtestantReformation #JanHus #everyone #allfollowers #whenthegoosefacedtheflame When the Goose Faced the Flame (Great Controversy — Chapter 6: Huss & Jerome) By Zeres Vitto Verse 1 In Bethlehem’s humble chapel hall, A preacher rose though Rome stood tall; The Scriptures lifted over throne, Christ crowned as Head — the Church His own. From Wycliffe’s pages light was borne, Through troubled lands by conscience sworn; Though councils spoke with gilded claim, The written Word remained the same. Pre-Chorus As Daniel saw in visions old, A horn that waged its war on saints; Yet heaven’s court with books displayed Records the price the faithful paid. Chorus When the goose faced the flame, And rulers branded faith as blame, The smoke rose high — but higher still The Lamb stood sovereign on the hill. Though thrones decreed and princes swore, The truth outlived the fire once more; For crowns decay and powers dim, But saints receive their realm from Him. Verse 2 They summoned him with pledges sworn, Safe passage sealed — yet trust was torn; Before assembled might he stood, While heaven weighed both word and blood. Pressed to deny what Scripture taught, Urged to exchange conviction bought; Yet conscience bound to sacred page Outshone the threats of council rage. Delivered to the civil hand, Where altar joined the king’s command; Thus war with saints again was named, As Revelation’s warning claimed. Verse 3 Jerome once trembled in the night, Where iron bars concealed the light; Fear bent his voice for fleeting breath, But truth returned to conquer death. Before the court he rose anew, Confessed the faith he once withdrew; No borrowed courage, none compelled — But steadfast trust by grace upheld. And walking where the embers burned, He sealed the witness he had learned. Bridge Through time and times and half a time, The saints were worn by horn and man; For twelve-sixty years the struggle ran, Till dominion slipped from mortal hand. In seventeen ninety-eight decreed, The scepter fell from papal seat; The wound was struck as Daniel said, Yet healing waits as prophets read. The court above had long made known: No throne endures but heaven’s throne. Verse 4 As Huss once stood before decree, So shall a remnant faithful be; Commandments kept though nations rage, The faith of Jesus in final age. When image forms and laws demand, And commerce bows to man’s command; Like goose before imperial flame, They trust the Lamb and bear His name. Final Chorus When conscience stands before the fire, And earth commands what heaven denies, The Ancient sits — the books declare The saints are heirs of answered prayer. Though beast and horn their hour display, The Lamb shall rise in brighter day; For stakes grow cold and empires fall, But Christ shall reign — Lord over all.
