And they said, "Daddy, Daddy, will we see there? There's so that we don't understand" And so I told them of and father Abraham I said, "Dear children, watch the lamb"
There be so many in Jerusalem today We must be sure the lamb run away And I told them of and father Abraham I said, "Dear children, watch the lamb"
When we reached the city, I knew something must be There no joyful worshipers there, no joyful worship songs And I stood there with my children in the midst of men I heard the crowd cry out, let's crucify Him

"Daddy, daddy, what we seen here? There's so that we don't understand?" So I took them in my and we turned and faced the Cross Then I said, "Dear children the lamb"
