Gethsemane Gathering

Tune: Crucifer

(\'Lift high the cross\')

Luke 22 v.39-46

*********

Chorus

Gethsemane, the way unto the cross

Jesus would suffer to redeem man\'s loss

 

Disciples with Him in the garden stayed

Spirits willing, yet flesh tiredness displayed - Chorus

 

Jesus said, Pray here, so that you not fall

Into temptation, nor your journey stall - Chorus

 

He went little way from them and did pray

Father, remove this cup [of suffering] if it be your way - Chorus

 

Nevertheless not what I will, but your

Will be done, grant me strength to obey sure - Chorus

 

An angel strengthened Him, He did sweat blood

In agony, yet for us a cleansing flood - Chorus

 

Lord, help us pray, that sleep us not o\'ercome

Progressing each day to our heavenly home - Chorus
