He heard a thousand mothers weep
For sons they'd never find.
The pain of dads who cannot sleep;
Then He bowed His head and died
He saw the brokenness of war;
The tears of last goodbyes.
He saw the lives all torn apart;
Then He bowed His head and died.
He felt the weight of prisoners chains.
He heard their cries at night.
He felt the lash of every whip;
Then He bowed His head and died.
He felt the pain of broken homes.
He heard their children cry.
Oh, He saw despair and hopelessness;
Then He bowed His head and died.
From Eden to Golgothas hill
All across the sands of time.
Came love just to buy back fallen man
God's Son would have to die;
Yes, To die...
A SHOUT split history in two
And it echoed through the skies.
Oh, The Father, the Father heard,
Thy will tis done!
Then He bowed His head and died!
All heaven heard, Thy will tis done!
Then He bowed His head and died.
