My God, My God, I cry to you
To calm this aching in my heart
The more I try to stand alone
The more I taste the dusty ground
I lift my hands, come pick me up
Hold me near with calming love
Whisper peace so I will know
You walked this road so long ago
You've walked this path before I have
Your tears have stained this alter first
Lord let me know, you know this too
For pain you had down here on earth
On this alter I see the scarlet stains
You shed so long ago, so I would know
You were here, you know my fears
And I don't have to walk alone
You cried out loud, you called for God
To take this cup away from you
But willingly you partoke
Of the wine that took your breath
Though I can't see my destiny
You know the plan you have for me
So by your hope I will stand
And I'll know that when I cry
I'm not the first whos knelt at this tear stained alter
