PARIS-MOVE, August 18th 2024 – Retour de la famille VAN ZANT après 2 décennies avec ce nouveau titre, “Jesus Christ”, qui marque les débuts du duo dans la musique chrétienne tout en restant fidèle à ses racines de rock sudiste.
Inspiré d’un tableau accroché dans les Sulfur Water Studios de Johnny Van Zant, “Jesus Christ” parle de la crucifixion et de la résurrection avec des descriptions lyriques très vivantes. “Je pense que cette chanson signifie probablement plus pour nous que ce que nous avons fait dans le passé et elle est très différente“, dit Johnny. “Ce n’est probablement pas ce que les gens attendent de nous, ce qui est plutôt cool.”
La dynastie musicale des Van Zant s’est fermement appuyée sur la famille. Donnie Van Zant a cofondé 38 Special et son frère Johnny Van Zant est l’actuel chanteur de Lynyrd Skynyrd après le décès de leur frère Ronnie Van Zant, qui était le leader et le cofondateur de ce groupe emblématique inscrit au Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

“Jesus Christ” Lyrics:
They hung him up – On the cross
They nailed him by his hands and feet
The blood he lost
They beat him ‘til there was there was no skin
Crucified an innocent man
He yelled out, “Father, they don’t know what they do”
There were tears running down his face
There was blood pouring out his eyes
He was more than just a man
They didn’t understand
He is our Savior
The Holy One
Jesus Christ
Oh, they took Him down – From the cross
They wrapped His body in pure white linen cloth
He made the ultimate sacrifice
So, we could all have eternal life
He bore the sins of all mankind
There were tears running down His face
There was blood pouring out His eyes
He was more than just a man
They didn’t understand
He is our Savior
The Holy One (Holy One)
Lord, Jesus Christ
He said, “Father in your hands, I commit my spirit” (Commit my spirit)
He never spoke a word in His defense (In His defense)
He fought the devil, and he won
The Son of God, The Holy One
He is our Savior (He is our Savior)
He is our Savior (He is our Savior)
Oh, Jesus Christ
He is our King
Let the Heavens sing
There were tears running down His face
There was blood pouring out His eyes
He was more than just a man
They didn’t understand
He is our Savior
The Holy One
He is our Savior
The Son of God, Jesus Christ
Oooooooh, Wooooah
He is our Savior
The Son of God
The Holy One
He is our Savior
The Son of God
The Holy One
And He has risen
The King of Kings
The Son of God
He is our Savior
The Holy One
Jesus Christ
Emmanuel
The Bread of Life
Oh, Jesus Christ
Let the Heavens open (Let the Heavens open)
Let the angels sing (Let the angels sing)
Oh, Jesus Christ
He is alive (He is alive)
He is alive (Alive)
My Jesus Christ (My Jesus, Jesus Christ)
Woah, Woah, Woah, Woah
We are free (Free)
Go to our King (Go to our King)
