Crucify Lyrics

I feel my chest just ache with every breath I breathe
With every step I take I feel my strength just leave
I feel I’m next to break it’s getting hard to see
My death is on it’s way they stop and laugh at me
They heard just what I say but as I walk these streets
They spit upon my face curse me as I bleed
But as I call Your name I know Your hearing me
So hear me as I pray but not so far from me
Father I know this day I know what You planned for me
And the reason I came it was to Earth to be
A way for those astray so they can know Your peace
So as I go to my grave I’m knowing what You hold for me
The blood runs down my face and lands upon my sleeve
I’m all alone today my friends abandon me
But still it’s all the same it’s prophesied to be
With final steps I make they start to scream at me

Chorus
Crucify Him, crucify Him, crucify Him, crucify Him!

Cross upon my back the hill in front of me
Whips begin to lash and draw more blood from me
As I begin to gasp I see my destiny
They hold me down and laugh and place the nails on me
With every spike they grab I scream violently
With every time they jab the nails I writhe in agony
They strip me of all I have I’m naked for all to see
A king without a land and stripped of all his royalty
Nine inch nails in hands and now upon my feet
As I the Son of Man I’m hanging next to two thieves
My Father in heaven now why has Thou forsaken me I’m barely breathing now my lungs collapse inside of me
I’m barely seeing now my vision blurs in front of me
I’m barely even now a man you’d recognize and see
I’m whipped and bruised beaten spit upon and cursed to be
I look upon the gathered crowd as they scream at me

Chorus

It’s getting darker now the sun it covers up its light
It’s getting harder now for me to hold onto this life
I’m slipping farther now to death I struggle just to fight
My head it starts to bow I know it’s just about that time
For it to be over now their life is why I’ve given mine
I’m barely holding now I know I’m just about to die
I came down from heaven to seek and save and just to find
See I showed them how I healed the lame and plus the blind
But I’m going now I got a purpose that’s divine
As I cry out loud from the pain that just fills my mind
They tell me to climb on down from the cross that holds me high
The mock me now as I struggle now and just to try
To hold my ground as the black clouds fill the sky
It’s over now, I bow my head as I begin to cry
It is, Father, It Is Finished!!

Chorus
