JESUS BORE THE BURDENS ALONE

In the garden of Gethsemane Jesus bore the burdens alone

He prayed for the sinners of the world

Whom His blood would atone

Father let this cup pass from me

But not my will but thine own

While His disciples were sleeping Jesus bore the Burdens

alone

CHORUS

Yes Jesus bore the burdens alone

Jesus bore the burdens alone

All the sins of the world Jesus took for His own

And then He suffered and died

For our sins to atone

And there on Calvary’s cross Jesus bore the burdens alone

---------------------------------------------------

Standing accused before the high priest

Jesus bore the burdens alone

Even Peter denied he knew Him

So he wouldn’t be stoned

Standing condemned at the hand of Pilate

No regret by Jesus was shown

As they nailed Him there on the cross

Jesus bore the burdens alone

REPEAT CHORUS

Upon the cross there on Calvary Jesus bore the burdens alone

Though He could have called on the angels

To come and take Him home

He took upon Him the sins of the world

Every sin that was ever known

To make away for lost sinners Jesus bore the burdens alone

REPEAT CHORUS
