The church dimly lit by candles The procession begins Alter servers in white with crimson ropes Solemn, quiet, mournful They proceed to their destination The priest lays prostrate before the alter His crimson vestment starts to glow The moon in all her beauty shines through the glass of our Lord's home Service begins The Passion read Our holy Cross brought forth Chaste, mournful lips kiss our Lord's feet Tears are shed is silent sobs Our King has died We look forward for three days Trying hard to remember he rises Knowing the end of the story Yet still heart's break Our King has passed As silently as service began It is finished Into His hands we commended our spirit

Good Friday
The church dimly lit by candles The procession begins Alter servers in white with crimson ropes Solemn, quiet, mournful They proceed to their destination The priest lays prostrate before the alter His crimson vestment starts to glow The moon in all her beauty shines through the glass of our Lord's home Service begins The Passion read Our holy Cross brought forth Chaste, mournful lips kiss our Lord's feet Tears are shed is silent sobs Our King has died We look forward for three days Trying hard to remember he rises Knowing the end of the story Yet still heart's break Our King has passed As silently as service began It is finished Into His hands we commended our spirit
