Carl Smith - Gethsemane lyrics
On a hillside so lonely, knelt Jesus one day,
Soul wounded and weary, He went there to pray;
By friends there forsaken, so lonely He feels,
To Heaven He's crying in helpless appeals.
Chorus:
But a golden day has broken, in old Gethsemane,
The mornings all come singing, the songs of victory;
There's a new highway to glory, the road that Jesus trod,
With a ha-lo we're trav'ling the pathway to God.
On the hillside and garden, such suff'ring I see,
In humble submission, He's making His plea;Carl Smith - Gethsemane - http://motolyrics.com/carl-smith/gethsemane-lyrics.html
His bloodstreams are bursting, come sinner, be true,
His cheeks are stained with crimson for me and for you.
Oh the shadows are creeping, the Savior in pain,
The dark skies are weeping, with dewdrops as rain;
The angels bear witness to Jesus divine,
Surrender completely, oh Savior of mine.
But a new day is breaking, the victory is won,
The flowers rejoicing, a new day is born;
The angels exclaiming, sweet music they chime,
For crowning of Jesus, your Savior and mine.
