Good Friday Song

Here is an MP3 File of a song I wrote a couple of years ago. The demo is a bit rough, but I hope it helps you focus this Good Friday on what happened at the Cross. Lyrics are attached below.

I take this bread
broken and torn
in pieces in my hands
I see the nails, I feel the thorns
but I cannot understand
how you were broken, forsaken for me
you cried “My God, My God”

I take this cup, fragrant and warm
passed from hand to hand
the salt of your tears
your blood as it poured
in rivers on the sand
when you were poured out, forsaken for us
you cried “My God, My God, why?”

The Sun grew dark, and the thunder roared
the mountains shook, and the veil was torn
when the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords
cried “It is finished.”
It is finished.
