Majesty In Misery

Though all of us have gone our own way

Though all of us have left and gone astray

Left and gone astray

The savior restrained

The king he was chained

For a people of unclean lips

With our hands blood stained

No rebellious cries with only love in his eyes

He knew our sin meant his demise

And as he walked in such grace

In grief he fell on his face

In light of all that he would embrace

Distressed

Until it was complete

Distressed

Till death had met defeat

While never calling retreat

Or even signaled defeat

This work was not yet complete

Despite the pain that’d ensue

And of the torment he knew.

His face was set to see it through

(Set to see it through)

The savior restrained

The king he was chained

For a people of unclean lips

With our hands blood stained

The savior restrained

The king he was chained

For the sake of his glory and love

Though all of us have gone our own way

Though all of us have left and gone astray

Cast down by wicked plans

Tortured by our own hands

Despised, deformed, disgraced

Forgiving all he faced

He was distressed until it finished

The pain endured was not diminished

Until the victory’s sound and was won

Not my will but yours be done

He drank it all, the cup of God’s wrath

He drank it down to the end

He drank it all, the cup of God’s wrath

He drank it down to the bitter end

You laid our wickedness on his head

For all we’ve done and all that we’ve said

He was crushed for our transgressions

He was pierced for all our sins

How could your death mean that I live?

When it’s my life that brought you death?

Oh God I truly give

My beating heart and living breath
