Walking on the to Jerusalem The time had come to again My two small sons, walk beside me on the road The that they came was to watch the lamb
And said, "Daddy, Daddy, what will we see there? There's so that we don't understand" And so I them of Moses and father Abraham Then I said, "Dear children, the lamb"
There will be so many in today We must be sure the lamb run away And I them of Moses and father Abraham Then I said, "Dear children, the lamb"
we reached the city, I knew something must be wrong There were no joyful worshipers there, no joyful worship And I stood there with my children in the of angry men Then I heard the cry out, let's crucify Him
We tried to leave the city but we could not get Forced to play in this drama, a I did not wish to play Why this day were men condemned to die? Why were we standing here where soon would pass by?
I and said, even now they come The first one for mercy, the people gave him none The second one was violent and he was arrogant and I still here his angry screaming at the crowd
Then someone said, "There's Jesus", I scarce my eyes A man so badly beaten, He looked alive Blood poured from His body, the thorns upon His brow Running down the Cross, to the ground
I watched as He struggled, I watched Him when He The cross came upon His back, the crowd began to yell In that moment I felt such agony, in that moment I felt such a Roman soldier grabbed my arm and screamed "You, His cross"
At first I tried to resist him, then his reached for his sword So I knelt and took the Cross the Lord I put it on my and we started down the street The blood that he'd been shedding was running my cheek
They led us to Golgotha, they nails deep in His feet and hands Yet upon the I heard Him pray, "Father, forgive them" have I seen such love in any other eyes "Into Thy I commit my spirit", He prayed and then He died
I stood for what seemed like years, I'd lost all sense of Until I felt two little hands tight to mine The children stood weeping, I heard the oldest say "Father please us, the lamb ran away"
"Daddy, daddy, what have we seen There's so much that we understand?" So I took them in my arms and we turned and faced the I said, "Dear children watch the lamb"
