Walking on the to Jerusalem The time had come to sacrifice My two sons, they walk beside me on the road The reason that came was to watch the lamb
And they said, "Daddy, Daddy, what will we see There's so much we don't understand" And so I told them of Moses and father I said, "Dear children, watch the lamb"
There will be so in Jerusalem today We must be sure the lamb run away And I told of Moses and father Abraham I said, "Dear children, watch the lamb"
When we reached the city, I something must be wrong There were no joyful worshipers there, no worship songs 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 not get away Forced to in this drama, a part I did not wish to play Why upon this day were men condemned to Why were we here where soon they would pass by?
I looked and said, now they come The first one for mercy, the people gave him none The one was violent and he was arrogant and loud I still his angry voice screaming at the crowd
Then said, "There's Jesus", I scarce believed my eyes A man so badly beaten, He barely alive Blood poured from His body, from the thorns His brow Running the Cross, falling to the ground
I watched as He struggled, I watched Him when He The cross came down upon His back, the crowd began to In moment I felt such agony, in that moment I felt such loss Till a soldier grabbed my arm and screamed "You, His cross"
At first I tried to resist him, then his hand for his sword So I knelt and took the from the Lord I put it on my and we started down the street The blood that he'd shedding was running down my cheek
They led us to Golgotha, they drove nails deep in His and hands Yet upon the I heard Him pray, "Father, forgive them" Never have I seen such love in any other "Into Thy hands I my spirit", He prayed and then He died
I stood for what seemed like years, I'd all sense of time 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 here? There's so much we don't understand?" So I took in my arms and we turned and faced the Cross Then I said, "Dear watch the lamb"
