Jesus ( /ˈdʒiːzəs/; Greek: Ἰησοῦς; 7–2 BC/BCE to 30–36 AD/CE), also referred to as Jesus Christ or simply Christ, is the central figure of Christianity and most Christian denominations venerate him as God the Son incarnated. In Islam, Jesus (in Arabic: عيسى in Islamic usage, commonly transliterated as Isa) is considered one of God's important prophets.
Most modern historians agree that Jesus existed and was a Jewish teacher from Galilee in Roman Judaea, who was baptized by John the Baptist, and was crucified in Jerusalem on the orders of the Roman Prefect, Pontius Pilate. Scholars have offered competing descriptions and portraits of Jesus, which at times share a number of overlapping attributes, such as a rabbi, a charismatic healer, the leader of an apocalyptic movement, a self-described Messiah, a sage and philosopher, or a social reformer who preached of the "Kingdom of God" as a means for personal and egalitarian social transformation. Scholars have correlated the New Testament accounts with non-Christian historical records to arrive at an estimated chronology of Jesus' life.
My heart aches for You my God
My soul waits for You my God
I've come far to find You here
In this place will I draw near ?
And Your Spirit soars in me
to the highest heights
From where I'll not look back
I'll keep trusting in You
For I know You are faithful, my God [2x]
My heart aches for You my God
My soul waits for You my God
I've come far to find You here
In this place will I draw near ?
And Your Spirit soars in me
to the highest heights
From where I'll not look back
I'll keep trusting in You
From the land of the barren
We will cry out for rain
Fill our hearts God
I'll keep trusting in You
For I know You are faithful, my God [4x]
Your Spirit inside me holds me close
In Your wonderful presence I let go
I cleanse my hands You burn my heart
I cry out for love You set me apart
And Your Spirit soars in me
to the highest heights
From where I'll not look back
I'll keep trusting in You
From the land of the barren
We will cry out for rain
Fill our hearts God
I'll keep trusting in You
