It's quiet tonight in the garden
Alone with the fears He must face
Desperate prayers by the moonlight
Before He is taken from this place

(chorus)
A life that was full of love
A man who brought hope and peace
But now the darkest day has come
When His time on Earth will cease

Though no stain was found within him
And no words could be found to accuse
All the elders have turned their backs
And the soldiers will come for him soon

(repeat chorus)

He gave all He had, and they took all He gave
He asked God to forgive them as His last breath escaped

The lamb has been slain, and the offering was paid
With blood from an innocent man, who never deserved such shame
