The Tree

[Intro;Guitar;Orchestral] [Verse 1] They drove iron through my wrists They drove iron through my feet Carried the worlds cross upon my shoulders [Verse 2] Hung upon the tree Hung bare for the world to see Beaten, Bloodied, and whipped Insults hurled without thought [Chorus;Female duet vocals] People unknowing Doing to themselves with what the did to me Failed to see their own pain Failed to see their own suffering [Interlude;Guitar;Orchestral] [Bridge] Told me not to teach Told me not to heal Told me not to preach Told me to leave you be [Verse 3] I went to the temple I turned over the tables Scattered the money changers Drove out the liars and thieves [Chorus;Female duet vocals] Cleaned our Fathers house Prayed for God to come home Cleaned our Fathers house Prayed for God to come home [Interlude;Guitar;Orchestral] [Verse 4] He told me they would come Told me they would hunt me down Come for my blood They would not get my life [Verse 5] To his side I will be called To spend eternity there I am the beacon of light The beacon on the hill [Outro] I am the light I am the way For all to be Come to me Come to me [Fade to END] [END]
