And God Cried - arr. Robert Sterling - GPC Youth Choir & Brass - Easter Sunday 2014

[@steviechords]

(I) The last road was the longest; He struggled for each breath, The crowd that cried 'Hosanna' now shouted for His death. Arrested and deserted, condemned and led to die, The soldiers mocked the sinless man, and God cried, God cried. (II) They pushed Him up the hillside to the place where He would die, They nailed Him to a brutal cross against a blackened sky. And there upon His shoulders the sins of man would ride, 'Please Father don't forsake me,' and God cried, God cried. (III) One final cry of anguish, salvations price was paid, A massive stone now sealed the tomb the place where Christ was laid. Three days in the darkness it seemed that love had died, And death had won its victory, and God cried, God cried. (Chorus) God cried, (God cried) Jesus is alive! The Son of God is risen, death is crucified. The grave could not contain Him no stone could hope to hide, And God cried.
