Dallas Atkins - THE BALLAD

Jesus was betrayed and brought to Pilot
The cheif priest and the elders accusing him
Jesus just stood still, He was doing his God's will
The people all called out free Barabus

What has he done did say Pilot
What has he done to you
The noise below got louder saying "Crucify him
So Jesus was flogged by the soldiers

They stripped him of his clothing saying "hail the King of Jews
They spat on him and took a staff and struck him
Then nailed him to the cross to die O Lord
They nailed you to the cross to die

He died for us, He died for you and me
To save us from the evil one
And to give us the chance to come to the Father
Through Christ Jesus, His Son

Sixth to the ninth hour, darkness did come over
Then Jesus let out a cry
My God, My God Why have you forsaken me
And the people below fell to cry

He's calling Elijah, Let's see if he will come
He cried once more and laid his head to one side
Jesus gave his soul and dies
He gave his soul and died

He died for us, He died for you and me
To save us from the evil one
And to give us the chance to come to the Father
Through Christ Jesus His Son
