Song for the Day: Thy Will Be Done by Craig Courtney
One of my favorite Holy Week anthems.
Here are the lyrics:
Thy Will Be Done - http://bit.ly/ThyWillBeDoneMP3
by Craig Courtney
Lyrics based on Matthew 26:36-42
Our cup was filled with darkness; our cup was filled with death.
Christ took our cup and drank it and gave us life and gave us hope, gave us Himself.
“My Father, let this cup pass from me,
My Father, let this cup pass from me,
yet not my will, O Lord,
yet not my will, O Lord, but Thine be done.”
In blackest night we hear Him in dark Gethsemane,
pleading with the Father for one more way, for one more hope, for one more day.
“My Father, let this cup pass from me,
My Father, let this cup pass from me,
yet not my will, O Lord,
yet not my will, O Lord, but Thine be done.”
Then they took our Savior and led Him to a tree
and there they broke His body, poured out His life, put Him to death, to RISE AGAIN!
“My Father, let this cup pass from me,
My Father, let this cup pass from me,
yet not my will, O Lord,
yet not my will, O Lord, but Thine be done.
Thy will be done, Thy will be done.”
