The Trial (Third Hour)

Verse 1:
A night of great anger
A night of lies
Filled with ill temper
False witnessing spies
Ridicule of all kinds
Denied by friends
No compassion to find 
Conspired against

Chorus 1:
Author of Life
The Judge of all
Put on trial
To take the fall
All Pilate did was wash
His is hands of the deed
What about you 
Do you wash your hands of Me?

Verse 2:
Pilate was ready
To set Jesus free
The crowd revolted
Due to the Pharisees 
The murdering thief 
Barabbas was freed
Like how Jesus 
Acquitted you and me

Chorus 2:
Author of Life
The Judge of all
Put on trial
To take the fall
Barabbas was guilty 
But the Lord took his place
What about you
Will you bask in the Lord’s grace?

Bridge:
No jury or judge 
Could ever do
Yet the ignorant
Voted against You
You who will try us
At the end of time
You who will judge us 
For all our crimes
You who will try us
At the end of time
You who will judge us 
For all our crimes
Help us repent of all our bad deeds
We implore You please have mercy
Have mercy Have mercy
Have mercy Have mercy
We implore You please have mercy

The Trial (Third Hour)

Remember Me (Ninth Hour)

Verse 1:
No fine robes nor chains of gold
Of Lordship nothing to show
Like a thief He hung unto death
So why is it you sought His help

Pre-chorus:
Was it when the sun hid its rays
Or the earth quaked that day
Or when those long dead arose
Or the temple veil suddenly tore
That you cried out

Chorus 1:
Remember me oh my Lord
When Thou comest into Thy Kingdom

Verse 2:
You conceded your guilt and opened your mind
Believed in a King who was crucified
Confessed and stole the greatest prize
The very Kingdom of Paradise

Pre-chorus:
Was it when the sun hid its rays
Or the earth quaked that day
Or when those long dead arose
Or the temple veil suddenly tore
That you cried out

Chorus 2:
Remember me oh my King
When Thou comest into Thy Kingdom

Verse 3:
You saw your fate you bought its seal
And then He spoke your repeal
All your broken heart and soul
Restored by faith, life forever stole

Pre-chorus:
Was it when the sun hid its rays
Or the earth quaked that day
Or when those long dead arose
Or the temple veil suddenly tore
That you cried out

Bridge:
The very hope and prayer we pray
That Christ might receive us one day
To hear His same words that say
“You will be with me in Paradise today”
When we cry out
When we cry out
When we cry out
When we cry out

Final Chorus:
Remember me oh my Lord
When Thou comest into Thy Kingdom
Remember me oh my King
When Thou comest into Thy Kingdom
Remember me oh Holy One
When Thou comest into Thy Kingdom

Sweet Mother (Eleventh Hour)

Chorus (x2):
Sweet mother so young and wise
Dry the fountains from your eyes
Your Son who is innocent chooses to die
Because He loves us, with love we can’t deny

Verse 1:
Simeon the Elder did say
That Jesus was destined for the fall
That the sword would also pierce your soul
Beholding Him crucified to save us all

Chorus:
Sweet mother so young and wise
Dry the fountains from your eyes
Your Son who is innocent chooses to die
Because He loves us, with love we can’t deny

Verse 2:
When His Body descended the cross
You knew the world rejoiced for salvation 
While no words describe the great cost
Paid by your precious Son and God 

Bridge:
You knew His pain within
Carrying all humanity’s sins
You knew His pain of shame
Stripped and hung for all to blame
You knew His pain on the cross
How much He suffered for us
But you endured so seeing Him
Lifting the weight of my sins

Final Chorus:
Virgin Mary do you still cry
Let me dry the tears of your eyes
By repenting of my soul’s crimes
For which Jesus was crucified
Sweet mother don’t you cry
Help me dry the tears of your eyes
Lead my soul to repent of its crimes
For which Jesus was crucified 

Ending:
Sweet mother dry your eyes

Sweet Mother (Eleventh Hour)

Golgotha (Twelfth Hour)

Golgotha in Hebrew
Kranion in Greek 
The place where You were crucified Lord
You spread out Your hands

And two thieves were crucified with You
At Your right and at Your left
You in the middle O good Saviour
Glory to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit

The thief at Your right
Cried out saying 
Remember me O my Lord
Remember me O my King 
Remember Me O my Saviour
When You come into Your Kingdom

The Lord answered Him
In a gentle voice saying 
Today You shall be with me in my Kingdom
Now and ever and unto the ages of the ages amen

The righteous Joseph and Nicodemus
Came and took the Body of Christ
Embalmed Him, prepared Him
Put Him in a tomb
Singing to Him saying
Holy God
Holy Mighty
Holy Immortal 
Who was crucified for us
Have mercy on us

Golgotha (Twelfth Hour)

Hallelujah (First Hour)

Verse 1:
A crown of thorns placed on His head
Like a lamb to the slaughter led
Yet He prayed His Father should forgive
They nailed Him to a wooden cross
Soon all the world would feel the loss 
Of Christ the King before His Hallelujah

Chorus:
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Verse 2:
A reed which held His final sip
Was lifted up to His lips
He drank His last and to His Father said
Into Your hands I commit
My spirit, and so was it
He breathed His last Hallelujah 

Chorus:
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Verse 3:
The soldier who had used his sword
To pierce the body of our Lord
Said truly this was Jesus Christ our Savior
He looked with fear upon his sword
Then turned to face his Christ and Lord
Fell to his knees crying Hallelujah

Chorus:
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Verse 4:
Took from His head the thorny crown
And wrapped Him in a linen gown
Then laid Him down to rest inside the tomb
The holes in His hands, His feet, His side
Now in our hearts we know He died
To save us from ourselves Hallelujah

Chorus:
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Verse 5:
Three days went by, again they came
To move the stone, to bless the slain
With oil and spice anointing Hallelujah
But as they went to move the stone
They saw that they were not alone
For Jesus Christ has risen Hallelujah

Chorus (x2):
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
