Pressed between the man He was, and His Holy lineage
Jesus called out “Abba Father” not my will but thine be done
Humanity was faltering, obedience pulling stronger
He cried out as reality probed the depths of His Godly soul
How painful for a Father to see His Son now suffer
His Son only begotten calling out from the darkness far below
The answer had been written long ago there in the garden
Man would need a ransom for his doomed and sinful soul
Father please forgive them, in agony He called out
Knowing that as Adam fell sin would infect us all
The sin of all mankind was then poured out onto His body
He bore the weight and shame of all the filth within our souls
His Father showed His power when the sky turned black as midnight
The earth was shaken and the temple curtain ripped apart
The Son of Man had opened a new path for man to follow
His Spirit would decend on man and dwell within his heart
Now in heaven sitting on the right hand of His Father
He guides His children daily by His Spirit and His Word
Someday soon I want to hear thy good and faithful servant
His love and sacrifice enough to see me safely to my home.
