"My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?"
-.-.-.
This cry of anguish
Reverberated through the air
As our savior died
-.-.-.
For in that moment
The Father turned his back
On his own Son
-.-.-.
Unable to look at him
Covered in blood
And our sins
-.-.-.
Because and for us Jesus suffered
He carried all of our wrongs
Offering himself to take the blame
-.-.-.
He was whipped, mocked
Spit upon, and crucified
For all of us
-.-.-.
And for all of us he was resurrected
To bring us hope
And salvation
-.-.-.
"My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?"
-.-.-.
To bring hope to all the world
And for the individuals there
That they might join me
In heaven
-.-.-.
"Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani?"
