Evening falls in Gethsemane garden
It was dark when the traitor came in
It was time for the big grand finale
And Judas he knew what to do
But it came as a shock
For no one had thought
Though he said it thousands of times
And they pleaded and begged
Jesus, do something then!
But he stood there and said, Yes I‘m coming
You are looking for me and I‘m coming.
And they led him away to be sentenced
And they whipped his skin to the bone
And they pleaded get rid of this upstart
Or else no one will feel quite safe
Was a long way to go
With everyone watching
When he carried his cross to the hill
And they laughed as they said
We‘ve done pretty well
And they patted themselves on the back
Yes, they patted themselves on the back.
Then I saw how they crucified him
And I heard as the hammer fell down
But the punishment he had to suffer
Was ours, to the world it belonged
It is true that he died
But he came back to life
And he‘s living
So you mark my words
I‘m certain, I‘m sure
And faith is the door
To enter this Paradise Found
Yes, to enter this Paradise Found..
