[00:21.35]We rode into town the other day
[00:26.99]Just me and my daddy he said I'd finally reached that age
[00:39.00]And I could ride next to him on a horse
[00:46.12]That of course was not quite as wide
[00:50.69]We heard a crowd of people shouting
[00:56.65]And so we stopped to find out why
[01:02.56]And there was that man that my dad said he loved
[01:09.85]But today there was fear in his eyes
[01:16.09]So I said daddy why are they screaming
[01:22.32]Why are the faces of some of them beaming
[01:28.71]Why is he dressed in that bright purple robe
[01:34.45]I'll bet that crown hurts him more than he shows
[01:39.99]Daddy please can't you do something
[01:45.42]He looks as though he's gonna cry
[01:51.43]You said he was stronger than all of those guys
[01:58.47]Daddy please tell me why why does everyone want him to die
[02:14.32]Later that day the sky grew cloudy
[02:19.75]And daddy said I should go inside
[02:25.65]Somehow he knew things would get stormy
[02:31.37]Boy was he right but I could not keep from wondering
[02:37.99]If there was something he had to hide
[02:42.89]So after he left I had to find out
[02:48.41]I was not afraid of getting lost so I followed the crowds
[02:57.96]To a hill where I knew men had been killed
[03:04.06]And I heard a voice come from the cross
[03:11.00]And it said father why are they screaming
[03:16.98]Why are the faces of some of them beaming
[03:23.42]Why are they casting their lots for my robe
[03:29.00]This crown of thorns hurts Me more than it shows
[03:34.39]Father please can't you do something
[03:39.99]I know that you must hear my cry
[03:45.77]I thought I could handle the cross of this size
[03:52.72]Father remind me why why does everyone want me to die
[04:02.32]Oh when will I understand why
[04:11.78]My precious son I hear them screaming
[04:17.93]I'm watching the face of the enemy beaming
[04:24.32]But soon I will clothe you in robes of my own
[04:30.65]Jesus this hurts me much more than you know
[04:35.48]But this dark hour I must do nothing
[04:41.63]Though I've heard your unbearable cry
[04:50.93]The power in your blood destroys all of the lies
[04:57.36]Soon you'll see past their unmerciful eyes
[05:03.37]Look there below see the child
[05:09.46]Trembling by her father's side
[05:15.37]Now I can tell you why she is why you must die
[05:33.00]
[05:51.35]Thank you god bless you guys great night
[05:54.00]
