KNOWING  THE  WILL  OF  THE  LORD

By  Dean Beaty  3/10/06

 

If you would know the Lord’s perfect will.

Go to the cross on Calvary’s hill.

Look on the Lord as He’s hanging there.

Dying in shame, my sins to bear.

 

See on His head His blood crusted hair.

Those are my thorns.  My sins put them there.

Hear as He gasps for just one more breath.

My sin is why the Lord suffered death.

 

See on His face the blood running down.

He should be wearing a golden crown.

His flesh is cut deep where He was whipped.

From off His back the flesh is all stripped.

 

So marred is His image no one could tell.

This was God’s Son they all knew so well.

Look at the Lord and see all His shame.

Hear as the crowd will curse with His name.

 

If you would know the Lord’s perfect will.

Go to the cross on Calvary’s hill.

Look on His face and then you may ask.

What shall I choose and what is my task?
