CGS Lyrics
Verse 1
Dark was the night and cold the ground
Where Jesus Christ knelt down
His sweat was like great drops of blood
In deep prevailing prayers
Verse 2
''Father, let this cup pass from me''
Thy will be done not mine
If it be not so, I will drink
Thy will be done, not mine
Verse 3
Sinner, go see Him in the court
Stained with His holy blood
He bore the heavy load for you
In deep humility
Verse 4
Do, learn to bear the cross of shame
Do the Father's good will
Then when temptation's very close
Wake up and watch and pray
Dark was the night and cold the ground
Where Jesus Christ knelt down
His sweat was like great drops of blood
In deep prevailing prayers
Verse 2
''Father, let this cup pass from me''
Thy will be done not mine
If it be not so, I will drink
Thy will be done, not mine
Verse 3
Sinner, go see Him in the court
Stained with His holy blood
He bore the heavy load for you
In deep humility
Verse 4
Do, learn to bear the cross of shame
Do the Father's good will
Then when temptation's very close
Wake up and watch and pray
