He
knew what the Passover meant.
He
knew the great price He would pay. He knew that His life would be spent,
Yet nothing could turn Him away.
He
knew what would come in that hour.
He
knew what His enemies planned. He knew there was no saving power
Apart from His own that could stand.
He
knew that He soon would depart.
He
knew what the cross would entail. He knew that His own broken heart
Would love us and never would fail.
He
knew His disciples would flee.
He
knew they would leave Him alone. He knew what the outcome would be,
Which He had already made known.
He
knew that He could have ascended
With
angels obeying His voice. He knew our salvation depended
Upon Him refusing that choice.
He
knew all the sorrows ahead.
He
knew there was no other way. He knew He would rise from the dead
As promised, upon the third day.
O
Lord, we give thanks for Your love
That
lasted for us till the end, That made You leave heaven above
And lay down Your life as our Friend!
Great
God and Creator of all,
Your
love, and Yours only could last For sinners condemned by the fall;
Your love is eternally vast!
O
send us, dear Lord, to declare
And
show Your great love for the lost!There’s no love like Yours to compare,
So moved that would pay such a cost!
