The room was quiet, the lamp was low, a final meal before the blow ,
he took the bread and broke it thin a Holy shield against our sin
he passed the cup the crimson wine a savior heart , a sacred sign
"do this" he said "to remember me" while across the garden stood the tree
the silver trade,the kiss of death,
the Roman whip took every breath,
beaten, bruised and bathed in red ,
a crown of thorns upon his head,
they mocked his name.
But he didn't whisper, he bore the shame .
Every lash was a debt he paid ,
for every soul that every strayed
He took the nails, he took the spear
He took the weight of the fear
Bloodied and broken ,
He climbed the hill
To do the father's sovereign will
He carried the sins of the whole wide world
As the banner of heaven was unfurled
They laid him down in the dark of the clay,
But death couldn't keep the love of the king away
Into the depths where the shadows dwell
He walked through the gates
of death and Hell
He didn't go as a prisoner bound
But as the king with a trumpet sound.
He grabbed the keys from the enemies hand
And reclaimed the life of every man
The debt is settled! The grave lays empty and the father's heart no longer sobs
He took the nails
He took the spear
He took the weight of every fear.
Bloodied and broken
He climbed the hill to do the father's sovereign will
He carried the sins of the whole wide world
As the banner of heaven was unfurled,
They laid him down in the dark of the clay ,
But death couldn't keep the love of the king away
He's got the keys
He's got the glory
Its a finished work ,
A perfect love story!
Three days later, he rose to reign
The lamb who was
Slain, has broken every chain
Hallelujah Amen
