Passion Song

verse 1 I was with him when he rode into town And crowds gathered round him like a king Their smiling faces, joined a sea of branches waving Thou they were masquerading in the end And my heart rose in my throat When I heard them sing Hosanna, in the highest Oooh Oooooh O Oh verse 2 We went upstairs, broke the bread and drank the wine From the only living vine that we would taste. And I watch them take him up the mountainside Where he was crucified though innocent. And they mocked him ,and cursed him with their mouths And told him to come down if he was God" Chorus 2 And my heart broke in my chest When I heard him say Forgive them, it is finished Oooh Oooooh O Oh BRIDGE I remember in the garden when he sweat like drops of blood And how he begged the father to let him pass the cup I can still feel the anguish when they pierced him in the side And how the ground beneath us shook upon the very moment that he died Oooh Ooh Oh Oh Oh verse 3 Three days later we found an empty grave and the stone was rolled away where he had been Tears of joy streamed down my face When the angel said Oh fear not, he is risen Oh fear not, he is risen Oooh Ooh Ooh Oooh Oh Oh Oooh
