The Fathers pain

All of a sudden i was promted to write a song about this. I know i can never really put to words the pain the son, and the father went through, but this really gives me a clearer picture, of the agony, the ultimate sacrifice that had to be made. The song is Gods point of view of the cruxifiction. When His one and only son lay dead in His arms..


V1
The darling of My kingdom, fell to the ground
With his hands tied up, spat on by the crowd
Only to obey, to make his Father proud
Against his own will, he said let your will be done

When you knelt there and prayed
The tears fell from your face
Father take this cup from me, but only if You please

But it breaks my heart to say
That there is no other way
To see my children once again


Chorus
No other way, I love them anyway
My Son, dont cry
Look to your crown, that awaits you here in heaven
But I have to turn my back on you now, Im turning my back on you for now


V2
The blood you spill will bring them back to me
The tears I spill, will wash them clean
In your dying breath you shouted to the sky
Have mercy on them, for their sin is now on me

And all I wanna say
Is my son how much I love you
But you knew this would come, I cant speak to you for now

I hear you crying out
Father why have you forsaken me
But this only ends when I say 'it is done'
And I cant be with you for now, My son

Chorus
No other way, I love them anyway
My Son, dont cry
Look to your crown, that awaits you here in heaven
But I have to turn my back on you now, Im turning my back on you for now

*If u have yet to experience the Fathers Love, let me introduce you to this man I sing about, a man that gave His life for you, His name is Jesus, and all you need to do to accept him as your saviour is to ask. and let me make it clear that He did not remain dead, he rose up victorious! and we praise a living God (:
