I Was There (Luke

[Verse 1]
I hover in shadows through this garden dark
My Savior kneeling, crushed by sin's cruel mark
His body trembling, sweat like drops of blood
Eternal pain, a crushing, endless flood
I weep for the Holy One, the Son divine
How can He bear this weight, this agony thine?
My spirit aches deeply, for Him my soul yearns
O Lamb of God, won't this torment soon turn?

[Chorus]
But behold, His love is boundless, His sacrifice pure
Through this atonement so vast, all souls He secures
Hope in His victory, trust in His grace
Redemption's light shall pierce through the haze

[Verse 2]
This moment I witness for ages to tell
When the King of all kings descended to hell
For every lost sinner, for nations afar
He takes on your burdens, reveals who you are
Restored through His mercy, His unending might
Lifted from darkness to heavenly height

[Chorus]
For you He pursues with a fire that won't die
Relentless in seeking, drawing you nigh
Wherefore there must be sorrow, then hope drawing near
And love everlasting, conquering fear

[Verse 3]
Come unto Jesus, grasp hold of His hand
Reject not His offering, as the faithful stand
Pray with your whole heart, seek if this be so
The Spirit will whisper the truths you must know
Remember His suffering, from eternity's span
For all of mankind, He became the slain Lamb

[Bridge]
And without His mercy, no soul can be free
Nor without His pursuit, in shadows we'd be
But cling to His passion, the deepest of all
It bears every torment, it answers the call

[Final Chorus-with hope]
So hope through His anguish, be drawn into light
All mankind redeemed in that glorious sight
With angels surrounding, in the arms of the King
Come unto Christ, let His pursuit redeem

[Outro]
I, the angel, depart now till judgment's great day
This witness from heaven, no longer astray
Yea, come unto Christ... and be perfected in Him.
