Were you there
when they laid palms at
His feet
and praises filled
the air?
Did you feel the loss
when they crowned Him
then hung Him on
a cross?
Did you here
them jeer
when He cried
Eloi Eloi
in loneliness
and fear?
Did you feel
the pain
when the Son of love
was slain?
Is there a greater gift
than this?
is there a greater love
than His?
That on a dark and
fateful day
a saviour came
and took our
sins away.
