You live in a palace, exist in a shack; we see you, the gardener, a tree on your back. 2 In millions alive, away and abroad; involved in our life you live down the road. Imprisoned in systems, you long to be free; we see you, Lord Jesus, still bearing your tree. 3 We hear you, O man, in agony cry; for freedom you march, in riots you die. Your face in the papers we read and we see. The tree must be planted by human decree. 4 You choose to be made at one with the earth; the dark of the grave prepares for your birth. Your death is your rising, creative your word; the tree springs to life and our hope is restored. Used With Tune: STANLEY BEACH

The temple's veil in sunder breaks, the solid marbles rend. 3 'Tis done! the precious ransom's paid! "Receive my soul!" he cries; see where he bows his sacred head! He bows his head and dies! 4 But soon he'll break death's envious chain and in full glory shine. O Lamb of God, was ever pain, was ever love like thine?
