Take thirty nine

And the lash falls down

We give Him a crown

As it sliced His brow

And the blood pours out

Look at the saviour now

And if I had to watch

Would I still take up my cross?

And if I had to follow

You to the grave

Would I do it today?

One, two, the King of the Jews took

Three, four, bleeding on the floor

Five, six, seven

My king looks to heaven

Eight, nine, heaven won't reply

Ten, eleven

The twelve stand silent

Thirteen, fourteen

Hell is hoping

Fifteen or sixteen feet from the gates

Seventeen, eighteen slapped

Him on the face

But He said nineteen, twenty

Love thy enemy

Twenty one, twenty two

More than half behind You

Twenty three, twenty four

Did You need fifteen more?

Twenty five, twenty six

No king can deserve this

Twenty seven, twenty eight

The religious men can hardly wait

Twenty nine, thirty

The Lamb of God is worthy

Thirty one, thirty two

Your father hath forsaken you

Thirty three, thirty four

All our sins, You bore

Thirty five, for all Your life

For all You healed

Did you yield?

Thirty six, no my Lord

You chose us of Your own accord

Thirty seven and

You still forgave them?

Thirty eight

Thirty nine

And You still haven't been crucified

But You'd take thirty nine again

You'd take thirty nine again

If I had to watch

Would I still take up my cross?

And if I had to follow You to the grave

Would I do it today?
