Drops of blood ran down his face
As he anguished in that quiet still place
The weight of His burden began to crush Him
My God, My God, why does this have to happen!!
The devil was attacking from every side
Raising doubts and fears that even he couldn’t hide
All alone in the garden that night
Not a friend or loved one was within sight
He cried from the very depths of His soul
That the God of Heaven would make Him bold
Bold to do the task for which He was called
Bold to bear the sin of All
All God and All man crying out in that garden
Preparing himself to purchase our pardon
Why is He subject to this?
Why must he be betrayed with a kiss
A liar, a thief, a murderer He was not
But you and I we must be bought
Bought with a price more precious than gold
The blood of the lamb that will never grow old
So on he marched into the quite still night
Prepared for battle and ready to fight
Fight with the forces of darkness and hell
Even thought it is you and I who have fell
Prepared to fight even unto the death
Prepared to give every last breath
That you and I may reign with Him one day
So He cried Father let your will be done come what may!!!
