A crown of thorns placed on his head – He knew that he would soon be dead
He said, “Did you forget me, Father, did you?”
They nailed him to a wooden cross – Soon all the world would feel the loss
Of Christ the King before us, Hallelujah
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah
He hung he head and prepared to die – Then lifted his face up to the sky
Said, “I am coming home now, Father, to you”
A reed which held His final sip – Was gently lifted to His lips
He drank his last then gave his soul to Glory
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah
The soldier who had used his sword – To pierce the body of our Lord
Said, “Truly, this was Jesus Christ, our Savior”
He looked with fear upon his sword – Turned to face his Christ and Lord
Fell to his knees, crying “Hallelujah”
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah
Took from His head the thorny crown – Wrapped Him in a linen gown
And laid Him down to rest inside the tomb
The holes in His hands, His feet, His side – Now in our hearts we know He died
To save us from ourselves, oh Hallelujah
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah
Three days went by, again they came – To move the stone, to bless the slain
With oil and spice, anointing, Hallelujah
But as they went to move the stone, – They saw that they were not alone
For Jesus Christ has risen, Hallelujah
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah
