Lyrics

THEY LED YOU UP A RUGGED HILL CALLED CARVARY, JUST TO SUFFER OPEN SHAME AND MISARY, THEN THEY NAILED YOUR HANDS AND NAILED YOUR FEET, HANGING THERE ON THE CROSS WITH SUCH ANGUISH AND LOSS, YOU ARE KING OF KINGS WHY DID YOU HAVE TO DIE. WHY DID THEY PLACE A CROWN OF THORNES UPON YOUR HEAD, PRESSED IT DOWN UPON YOUR BROW UNTIL YOU BLED, ALL THE PEOPLE STOOD AROUND AND THEY SAID, YOU SAVED EVERYONE ELSE WHY CANT YOU SAVE YOURSELF, YOU ARE KINGS OF KINGS WHY DID YOU HAVE TO DIE. YOU COULD HAVE CALLED A HOST OF ANGELS TO DEFEND YOU FOR YOU'RE THE SON OF GOD, BUT INSTEAD YOU SAID FORGIVE FOR THEY KNOW NOT WHAT THEY DO, AND WHEN THE DARKNESS FELL YOU CRIED IT IS DONE AND THEN YOU HUNG YOUR HEAD, THE SOLDIER PIERCED YOUR SIDE WHY DID YOU HAVE TO DIE.
