Lyrics

[Verse]
Down the dusty road to Calvary, a man bore all our pain,
With blood and thorns upon His head, He walked through scorn and shame.
His mother watched with tear-filled eyes as they drove in each cruel nail,
And in that somber moment, love and sorrow did prevail.

[Verse 2]
In the garden dark, a friend betrayed with a kiss of bitter lies,
For thirty silver pieces, Judas sold the Heavens' prize.
By the firelight, another friend denied his name three times,
While the cock crowed in the distance, a heart full of silent cries.

[Chorus]
Oh, He took the cross for us, carried all our sins,
Forgave the thief beside Him, though he lived in sin.
His mother's grief was boundless as He took His final breath,
And in that holy sacrifice, we were saved by His death.

[Verse 3]
The sun refused to shine that day, as shadows fell so near,
And every anguished cry of His, echoed through the sphere.
Mankind's shackles rattled loose, as His spirit left the clay,
In the moment of His passing, darkness turned to day.

[Verse 4]
In a world of pain and sorrow, He became our guiding light,
And through His endless mercy, turned our wrongs into right.
Though denied by those who knew Him, love was His reply,
In the sacrifice He offered, He opened Heaven wide.

[Chorus]
Oh, He took the cross for us, carried all our sins,
Forgave the thief beside Him, though he lived in sin.
His mother's grief was boundless as He took His final breath,
And in that holy sacrifice, we were saved by His death.
