Whips Crack - Across My Back
Whips Crack - Across My Back
Cats of Nine tear at me
Cats of Nine tear at me
I can hear them mocking me
I can hear the screaming
King of the Jews
Save yourself if you are
God in Flesh
I saw Michael
And he drew his sword
He was ready
To put an end to this
Legions of Angels
Stood in Formation
And all it would took
Was One Word
And Michael
Would of done his duty
As they mocked me
I carried that heavy Cross
Down the road to Cavalry
I was beaten and broken
My flesh ripped
For you, my Child
And I would do it again
And Again
As I laid on the cross
I held my hand out
They drove the nails
Right through me
I screamed out in pain
Father!
Why have you forsaken me
I watched him
Turn his head away
From me, unwilling to
Look at me
I was hideous
From the weight
Of your sin
On my Left and Right
Save Yourself
Oh you King - Pure mockery
Be silent, we deserve this
He did nothing
Oh Jesus, will you
Remember me
When you enter your kingdom?
Tears rolling down his face
And I lifted myself up
So I could breath
Tonight you will be with me
In Paradise
And he hung his head to die
But he would go slowly
Father Forgive them
For they know not
What they do
Every Sin Laid upon me
Every Sin you commit
You drive the nails
Into my hands
Every Sin You Commit
You hold the whip
And you lash me
Every Sin
You drive the thorns
Upon my head
Father Forgive them
For they know not
What they do
I hung my head
And said
It is Finished
As I my head to die
I looked down at you
Tears of joy
Stream down my face
Because now,
I can hold you now
Eternally
Death has no hold on you
I was the sacrifice
So that we can dance eternally
And I would do it all again
Just to Save You
