Karaoké Watch the Lamb Ray Boltz

Walking on the road to Jerusalem the time had come to sacrifice again

My two small sons they walked beside me on the road

The reason that they came was to watch the lamb

Daddy, Daddy

What will we see there

There's so much that we don't understand

So I told them of Moses and Father Abraham and then I said Dear children watch the lamb

There will be so many in Jerusalem today we must be sure the lamb doesn't run away

And I told them of Moses and Father Abraham

Then I said Dear children watch the lamb

When we reached the city

I knew something must be wrong

There were no joyful worshippers

No joyful worship songs

I stood there with my children in the midst of angry men

And then I heard the crowd cry out

Crucify Him

We tried to leave the city but we could not get away

Forced to play in this drama a part I did not wish to play

Why upon this day were men condemned to die

Why were we all standing here when soon they would pass by

I looked and said

Even now they come

The first one cried for mercy

The people gave him none

The second one was violent

He was arrogant and loud

I still can hear his angry voice screaming at the crowd

Then someone said

There's Jesus and I scarce believed my eyes

A man so badly beaten

He barely looked alive

Blood poured from His body

From the thorns upon His brow

Running down the cross and falling to the ground

I watched Him as He struggled

I watched Him as He fell

The cross came down upon His back

The crowd began to yell

In that moment

I felt such agony

In that moment

I felt such loss

Until the Roman soldier grabbed my arm and screamed

You

Carry His cross

At first I tried to resist him then his hand reached for his sword

And so I knelt and took the cross from the Lord

I placed it on my shoulder and started down the street

The blood that

He'd been shedding was running down my cheek

They led us to Golgatha

They drove nails deep in His feet and hands

And yet upon the cross

I heard Him pray

Father forgive them

Oh never have I seen such love in any other eyes

Into thy hands

I commit My spirit

He prayed and then He died

I stood for what seemed like years

I'd lost all sense of time

Until I felt two tiny hands holding tight to mine

My children stood there weeping

I heard the oldest say

Father please forgive us

The lamb ran away

Daddy Daddy

What have we seen here

There's so much that we don't understand

So I took them in my arms and we turned and faced the cross

And then I said Dear children

Watch the Lamb
