The Lamb is a Lion

This is a song by Michael Card, and it's from the first CD I ever purchased with my own money (I think I was about 15). It's been in my head the past month or two.

The Lamb is a Lion

Weak from the journey, the long traveling days
Hungry to worship, to join in the praise
Shock met with anger that burned on His face
As He entered the wasteland of that barren place

Chorus
And the Lamb is a Lion who's roaring with rage
At the empty religion that's filling their days
They'll flee from the harm
Of the Carpenter's strong arm
And come to know the scourging anger of the Lord

Priests and the merchants demanded some proof
For their hearts were hardened and blind to the truth
That Satan's own law is to sell and to buy
But God's only way is to give and to die

Chorus

The noise and confusion gave way to His Word
At last sacred silence so God could be heard

Chorus

I've never heard that song, but I like the lyrics.
