How many doth really understand why Jesus gave his life
How many could have carried his cross with all his pains and strife
How many cried deeply on that treacherous day
How many spat on him as he climbed the hilly way
His blood flowed torturously from whips and chains and sticks
Spikes were driven into his feet and deeply into his wrists
For death was coming soon to him what did all this mean
A deliverance of us all from sin so we are thoroughly clean
While he suffered on the cross, he forgave those for what they did
And forgave another at his side as he repented of his sin
What man could take all this on but God’s only son
It is finished so he said, on Calvary it is done
But the story of the cross is not complete for then he rose from the grave
He had to show his disciples that there were many more to save
For on this day of Easter, as we attend our church to pray
Remember the cross to which he died and the tomb in which he lay
Remember the resurrection, for he is the the only way for us
Accept our savior Jesus now, for in our God we trust
