In
the
garden
You
had
called
us
To
walk
with
You
in
love
But
the
serpent
brought
deception
And
the
darkness
entered
in
We
were
separated
from
Your
presence
Sin
had
broken
what
was
whole
But
even
there
You
spoke
a
promise
Of
redemption
for
the
soul
Through
the
ages
You
were
calling
Through
the
prophets
You
revealed
That
a
Savior
would
be
coming
And
the
broken
would
be
healed
From
the
seed
of
Abraham
To
the
promise
through
the
line
Every
word
was
pointing
forward
To
the
fullness
of
Your
time (
The
music
begins
to
rise.
Subtle

You
never
left
us
in
our
darkness
You
never
turned
Your
face
away
You
prepared
a
road
to
mercy
You
prepared
a
living
way
From
Eden
to
the
Cross
You
were
working
out
salvation
From
the
promise
to
the
Lamb
You
were
reaching
for
the
nations
From
the
garden
to
Calvary
Your
great
love
was
calling
us
Jesus
came
to
save
the
lost
Jesus
paid
the
cost (
Lead

alone.
The
arrangement
becomes
warmer
and
more
emotional.)
Born
in
Bethlehem,
our
Savior
Came
to
walk
among
us
here
He
touched
the
broken
and
the
weary
He
brought
hope
to
those
in
fear
He
proclaimed
the
Kingdom's
coming
He
revealed
the
Father's
heart
Then
He
walked
toward
crucifixion
Knowing
what
the
Cross
would
cost
They
rejected
and
condemned
Him
They
placed
a
crown
upon
His
head
They
nailed
Him
to
the
wooden
Cross
And
they
watched
the
Savior
bleed
Every
wound
became
our
healing
Every
stripe
became
our
peace
He
was
bearing
all
our
sin
there
So
the
guilty
could
be
free (
Music
drops
dramatically.
Piano
and
voice
become
intimate.)
At
the
Cross...
Mercy
met
the
sinner
At
the
Cross...
Grace
became
our
freedom
At
the
Cross...
The
debt
was
finally
paid
Jesus
cried, “
It
is
finished.” (
A
brief
pause,
then
the
music
begins
to
rise.)
The
veil
was
torn
The
way
was
opened
The
price
was
paid
The
curse
was
broken
The
grave
could
not
contain
Him
Death
could
not
hold
the
King
On
the
third
day
He
arose
And
now
forever
He
will
reign (

From

From

From
