THE CROSS
Leader: He was despised and rejected by others; a man of suffering and acquainted with infirmity; and as one from whom others hide their faces he was despised and we held him of no account.
People: Surely he has borne our infirmities and carried our diseases; yet we accounted him stricken, struck down by God, and afflicted.
Leader: But he was wounded for our transgressions, crushed for our iniquities; upon him was the punishment that made us whole, and by his bruises we are healed.
People: He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet he did not open his mouth; like a lamb that is led to the slaughter, and like a sheep that before its shearers is silent, so he did not open his mouth.
Leader: I will forgive their iniquity, and remember their sin no more.
People: As for you also, because of the blood of my covenant with you, I will set your prisoners free from the waterless pit.
Leader: When they came to the place that is called The Skull, they crucified Jesus there with the criminals, one on his right and one on his left.
People: Then Jesus said, “Father, forgive them; for they do not know what they are doing.” And they cast lots to divide his clothing.
Leader: Then [the criminal] said, “Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom.” He replied, “Truly I tell you, today you will be with me in Paradise.”
People: It was now about noon, and darkness came over the whole land until three in the afternoon, while the sun’s light failed; and the curtain of the temple was torn in two.
Leader: Then Jesus, crying with a loud voice, said, “Father, into your hands I commend my spirit.” Having said this, he breathed his last.
People: When Jesus saw his mother and the disciple whom he loved standing beside her, he said to his mother, “Woman, here is your son.” Then he said to the disciple, “Here is your mother.” And from that hour the disciple took her into his own home.
Leader: After this, when Jesus knew that all was now finished, he said (in order to fulfill the scripture), “I am thirsty.” A jar full of sour wine was standing there. So they put a sponge full of the wine on the branch of hyssop and held it to his mouth.
People: When Jesus had received the wine, he said, “It is finished.” Then he bowed his head and gave up his spirit.
Leader: And about three o’clock Jesus cried with a loud voice, “Eli, Eli, lema sabachthani?” that is, “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?”
All: Now when the centurion and those with him, who were keeping watch over Jesus, saw the earthquake and what took place, they were terrified and said, “Truly this man was God’s Son!” .

THE BLOOD WILL NEVER LOSE ITS POWER
Verse:
The blood that Jesus shed for me
Way back on Calvary
The blood that gives me strength
From day to day
It will never lose its power
It reaches to the highest mountain
It flows to the lowest valley
The blood that gives me strength
From day to day
It will never lose its power
Verse:
It soothes my doubts and calms my fears
And it dries all my tears
The blood that gives me strength
From day to day
It will never lose its power
It reaches to the highest mountain
It flows to the lowest valley
The blood that gives me strength
From day to day
It will never lose its power
I DONT FEEL NO WAYS TIRED
I don't feel no ways tired,
I've come too far from where I started from.
Nobody told me the road would be easy,
And I don't believe He brought me this far to leave me.
I don't feel no ways tired,
I've come too far from where I started from.
Nobody told me the road would be easy,
And I don't believe He brought me this far to leave me.
I don't believe He brought me this far
I don't believe He brought me this far
I don't believe He brought me this far to leave me.

DON’T CRY
Why do you cry? He has risen
Why are you weeping? He's not dead
Why do you cry? He has risen
Why are you weeping? He's not dead
He paid it all, on that lonely highway
And His anointing I can feel
He shed His blood for my transgressions,
And by His stripes we are healed
Why do you cry? He has risen
Why are you weeping? He's not dead
Bridge:
So as you go through life's journey
Don't you worry lift up your head
Don't you cry, stop your weeping
He has risen,
He's not dead
Chorus:
Don't - cry
Wipe - your - eyes
He's - not - dead
(Oh) don't - weep
He's - not - asleep
Jehovah, He's - not - dead
(Oh) don't - cry
Wipe - your - eyes
He's - not – dead
OH WHAT LOVE
Verse:
[Lead] What kind of Man is this,
who died for me and set me free?
Tell Me, what kind of Man is this,
who died for me and set me free?
What kind of Man is this,
Who would leave His leave His heavenly home,
then come down (then come down)
to give His life, as a sacrifice,
just to save a wretch, like you and me'
They beat my Jesus,
they beat Him all night long,
until He saw every little bone.
And when He took His very last breath,
He hung His head and died for you and I;
[Lead] oh what love the Man has for me,
that He would give His life.
Chorus:
[All] Oh what love, He has for me,
that He would give His life.
Oh what love, He has for me,
that He would give His life;
(I don't know what you call it, but that's love)
That's love, that's love!
Oh what love, He has for me,
that He would give His life.
Oh what love, He has for me,
that He would give His life;
Oh what love, He has for me,
that He would give His life;
Oh what love, He has for me,
that He would give His life;
Vamp:
Jesus went to Calvary,
to save a wretch like you and me;
that's love, that's love.
Jesus went to Calvary,
to save a wretch like you and me;
that's love, that's love.
They hung Him high,
they stretched Him wide,
He hung His head,
for me He died;
that's love, that's love
They hung Him high,
they stretched Him wide,
He hung His head,
for me He died;
that's love, that's love
But That's not how the story ends,
three days later, He rose again;
that's love, that's love.
But That's not how the story ends,
three days later, He rose again;
that's love, that's love.
Repeat Chorus
Ending:
His love.
