The Roman cross was heavy His strength was almost gone A man named Simon helped Him To where His death would come The nails were driven deep Into His feet and hands The cross was raised up tall The torture now began When He came as a baby in a manger Shepherds praised Him and Kings bowed down But they did not know that He had come To die and save us all He raised Himself for breath Then He sunk down into pain This crucifixion torment Went on until His end They put Him in a borrowed tomb They sealed it with a stone One day passed and then another The disciples felt alone When He came as a baby in a manger Shepherds praised Him and Kings bowed down But they did not know that He had come To die and save us all Then the stone rolled back. The guards slept on The Lord came out. The victory won No more would death hold Him down He has risen to claim His throne I’ll lift my voice singing Hallelujah I’ll lift my voice singing praise the Lord Forever He is risen. Forever He is holy Forever He’s the King upon the throne I’ll lift my voice singing Hallelujah I’ll lift my voice singing praise the Lord Forever He is risen. Forever He is holy Forever He’s the King upon the throne When He came as a baby in a manger Shepherds praised Him and Kings bowed down But they did not know that He had come To die and save us all Then to live again and give us all Eternal life
