Lyrics

He walks down the stone road,
Bearing the weight of the old wooden cross,
His blood falling soft to the ground,
His tears and sweat mark every stone.

Praise His name, all you people of the world,
Praise His name, lift it high across the earth,
Hallelujah to the Lord for His sacrifice,
Hallelujah, Hallelujah to the Lord.

The people weep as He stumbles down the street,
They reach out trembling hands in love and grief,
They mourn for Him as He slowly passes by,
Not knowing yet the gift He bears for them.

Praise His name, all you people of the world,
Praise His name, lift it high across the earth,
Hallelujah to the Lord for His sacrifice,
Hallelujah, Hallelujah to the Lord.

The people mock Him,
the people throw their stones,
They hiss and spit as He passes through the crowd,
They do not see the love behind His eyes,
They do not know He's dying for their lives.

Oh, people of the earth, you don't understand,
Oh, people of the earth,
look and see what He has done,
He gives His life so you may truly live,
He calls you now to walk beside Him.

Praise His name,
all you people of the world,
Praise His name,
lift it high across the earth,
Hallelujah to the Lord for His sacrifice,
Hallelujah, Hallelujah to the Lord.

He became poor so we could be rich,
He became a servant so we could be free,
He became weak so we could stand strong,
He chose shame so we could walk in honor,
He gave up all so we could gain everything,
He laid down His life so we could truly live.

Praise to our God in the highest,
Praise to our God in all the earth,
Hallelujah to the Lord of hosts,
Hallelujah to He who deeply loves.

He abounds in grace,
He abounds in love,
He abounds in mercy and forgiveness,
He abounds in wisdom,
He abounds in blessing,
Worthy is the Lamb, forever.

Praise to our Lord and God,
Praise to our Lord and Savior,
Praise to our King and our dearest friend,
Praise to our Judge and Creator.

Thank you, Lord... Praise you, Lord...
Thank you, Lord...Praise you, Lord...
Thank you, my friend...
Thank you dearly... thank you dearly...
