Tension is rising -
building inside me.
I can't disguise this foolish uprising.
My anger now raging.
My joy decaying.
Emotions are changing
with every breathe that I take.

Chorus 1
Oh, I'm asking for you -
crying out your name.
Is it rude to intrude
on this devastating day'
Oh, God why did you
allow this tragedy'
The life of your son
is now hanging on a tree.
His lifeless body lay
on this Good Friday.

Verse2
Heartbreak in His bloodshot eyes.
With pains in His sides he cries,
'Father forgive them,
they know not what they have done!'
His mother is crying.
Peter asking why
he denied the name of Christ,
and now he's dying inside.

Chorus 2
Oh, I'm asking for you -
crying out your name.
Is it rude to intrude
on this devastating day'
Oh, God why did you
allow this tragedy'
The life of your son
is now hanging on a tree.
His lifeless body lay
on this Good Friday.

Interlude

Bridge
Placed in a tomb.
Three days have passed.
The stone rolled away.
He's alive at last!
The Savior arises.
Pick up your cross.
Follow His name.
Jesus Christ we praise!

Chorus 3
Oh, God I don't get why
my soul you are saving '
A world full of sin
and hatred still raging.
So thankful am I
for your gift of grace -
The hope that you gave
to this faltering race.

We can cel-e-brate
On this Good Friday.
