Verse 1
Off in the distance, just a stonea019s throw away
His hands clasp together as he kneels down to pray.
Alone with his thoughts, his friends arena019t aware
Of his pain and his anguish or the burden he bears.
He pleads with his Father knowing what is to come
That he let this cup pass, but that Goda019s will be done.
On a dark lonely night, in the Garden of Gethsemane.
Verse 2
His mission completed, hea019s done all that he can.
And it weighs on his heart, as it would any man.
Thirty pieces of silver is all ita019s been worth
For the fear that he suffers on his last night on earth.
They cana019t understand all pain he will face.
As the price for their sins he will bear in their place.
On a dark lonely night in the Garden of Gethsemane.
Bridge
All his life has been leading to this moment in time.
And the great sacrifice to redeem all mankind.
Though they kneel in his presence they cana019t understand
Though divine he is still just a man.
Outro 1
The last chaptera019s beginning, the final scene will unfold
In the greatest of stories thata019s ever been told.
On a dark lonely night in the Garden of Gethsemane
Outro 2
As they lead him away to events pre-ordained
He knows that a world full of lives will be changed.
On a dark lonely night in the Garden of Gethsemane.
