- The
hour had come and the tears begun
- For the reason he came he stood his ground and did not run,
- God himself in the flesh, broken hearted facing death
- Quintessence was the Almighty for humanity, he had no regret
-
- Like
drops of blood was his sweat for our expiation
- This he chose without hesitation to save us from damnation,
- What did Jesus see through his tear filled eyes?
- As he called unto his Father with pangs that made him cry
-
- For
one who did no wrong whose heart had no avarice
- O! Wanton hearts! Do we comprehend his penitential
sacrifice?
- One so mighty his miracles so great, even on water he
peregrinates
- All this he did to save us from hell and Hades gate
-
- With
a crown of thorns and leather striking his back
- He carried his cross to face the cost, to save us from the
dark,
- On Golgotha's cross hung God's precious and loving son
- Eloi, Eloi, this he cried, the price is paid and now it is
done
-
- Our
crimson stains can be washed at the Cross
- And there will be no more remorse
- Jesus carries all of our burdens
- There is no need to feel downtrodden…
