Walking on the to Jerusalem The time had to sacrifice again My two small sons, walk beside me on the road The that they came was to watch the lamb
And they said, "Daddy, Daddy, what we see there? There's so that we don't understand" And so I told them of Moses and father I said, "Dear children, watch the lamb"
There will be so many in Jerusalem We must be sure the lamb doesn't run And I told them of and father Abraham I said, "Dear children, watch the lamb"
When we reached the city, I knew something be wrong There were no joyful worshipers there, no joyful songs And I stood there with my children in the of angry men I heard the crowd 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 to die? Why were we standing here where soon they pass by?
I looked and said, now they come The first one cried for mercy, the gave him none The one was violent and he was arrogant and loud I here his angry voice screaming at the crowd
Then someone said, "There's Jesus", I scarce believed my A man so badly beaten, He barely alive Blood from His body, from the thorns upon His brow Running down the Cross, to the ground
I watched as He struggled, I Him when He fell The cross came upon His back, the crowd began to yell In that I felt such agony, in that moment I felt such loss Till a Roman soldier my arm and screamed "You, His cross"
At I tried to resist him, then his hand reached for his sword So I and took the Cross from the Lord I put it on my and we started down the street The blood he'd been shedding was running down my cheek
They led us to Golgotha, they drove deep in His feet and hands Yet upon the I heard Him pray, "Father, forgive them" Never have I seen such love in any eyes "Into Thy hands I commit my spirit", He prayed and then He
I stood for what seemed like years, I'd all sense of time Until I felt two little holding tight to mine The children there weeping, I heard the oldest say "Father please us, the lamb ran away"
"Daddy, daddy, what we seen here? so much that we don't understand?" So I took them in my arms and we and faced the Cross Then I said, "Dear watch the lamb"
