TREE OF AGONY

There was a cross/ there was a tree

Up on a hill/ called Calvary

Where Jesus died/ was crucified/ for all men

They spiked His hands/ they nailed His feet

They pierced His side/ made it complete

This sacrifice/ that paid the price/ for all sin

CHORUS

That tree of agony/ now brings hope to me

But at the time/ it was a crime/ but it had to be

His blood had to fall/ for one and all

To be set free/ for eternity

By that tree/ of agony

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

There was a grave/ there was a tomb

They placed Him there / in that cold room

He would not stay/ on that third day/ He would rise

When Mary came/ on that third dawn

The stone rolled back/ His body gone

An angel there/ said He's not here/ He's alive

REPEAT CHORUS X 2
