Children’s Song or Vocal Solo with Piano
(Includes an optional vocal harmony part)
Words: Cris Conerty & Alaina Larsen
Music & Arrangement: Cris Conerty
This easy-to-learn song about the experience Jesus Christ had in the Garden of Gethsemane, and its ultimate meaning, will touch hearts. The bridge portion of the song focuses on a stunning detail found only in Luke 22:43 – an angel appeared to the Savior for the sole purpose of strengthening him in his agony.
Special bonus: the three beautiful illustrations featured in the music video are included in the Choir Bundle!
VERSE 1
Beside a twisted olive tree,
the Savior grieved on bended knee.
For all the sin the world has known,
Jesus offered to atone.
VERSE 2
He was not forced to suffer there,
Although His pain was great to bear.
Said Jesus, the Obedient One,
“Not my will, but Thine, be done.”
BRIDGE
And as He drank the bitter cup
An angel came to bear Him up,
Sent from His Father up above
To aid Him in His act of love!
VERSE 3
He won the vict’ry for our sakes,
So we can rise from our mistakes!
And thankful I will always be
For Jesus in Gethsemane…
Where He showed His endless love for me!
