Tekst Utworu

Last night I dreamed I took a walk
Up Calvary's lonely hill
The things I saw with my own eyes
Could not have been more real
I saw upon three crosses
Three men in agony
Two cried out for mercy
The third man looked at me
And oh the hurt in this man's eyes
Just broke my heart in two
It seemed that I could hear him say
"I'm doing this for you"
I knelt beneath the third man's cross
And slowly bowed my head
I reached out to touch his feet
And it stained my hands with red
And when I heard him cry in pain
I raised my eyes to see
The blood spilled from the third man's side
And some of it spilled on me
The third man wore a crown of thorns
Spikes held him to the tree
I heard him say "Oh God, my God
Hast thou forsaken me?"
And there within the mighty crowd
The ones who mocked him cried
"King, save thyself if thou art king"
And then the third man died
Suddenly I heard the thunder roll
Saw lightning pierce the sky
The third man was still hanging there
And I began to cry
I saw the boulders fall and
Heard the breaking of the ground
Then I awoke and though I dreamed
I touched my cheek and found
My eyes were wet where I had cried
A dream I wish I knew
I still can hear the third man say
"I'm doing this for you"
