Getsemani
I walk alone in a silent path
Searching in vain for your strength
Feeling a fear that I can't banish
Tasting an anguish that never vanishes
The stars seem so cold tonight
The sky seems so dark at my sight
Father take away from me
This bitter cup, and set me free
But thy will be done
I bless thy holy throne
With the nails and with the spear
They will spill my Blood and every tear
This is my body, which is sacrificed
For you, is sacrificed
This is the bread, and this is the wine
For you, I destroy my shrine
This is the time to know the tomb
For you, into the black womb
My pain is burning bright
In the heart of the night
While my friends sleep
My enemies creep
With hate in your eyes
They defy the skies
But glory will come
From my unbroken bones
My pain is burning bright
In the heart of the night
While my friends sleep
My enemies creep
The blood is my perspiration
In this time of oration
Getsemani listen to my cry
The tears that nobody will dry.
