26. Gethsemane

1 Into a garden went my Lord,
Alone with God to be;
With His great plan in full accord,
In dark Gethsemane.

Refrain:
O how He suffered for His own
In dark Gethsemane;
Facing the issue all alone
In dark Gethsemane.

2 Lo! as He prays, on that fair brow
Great drops of blood I see;
See how He agonizes now,
In dark Gethsemane. [Refrain]

3 Crushed ‘neath the weight of sin until
He fain would be set free;
Knowing full well the Father’s will,
In dark Gethsemane. [Refrain]
