Golgotha (the Place Of The Skull) Lyrics

They placed a crown of thorns on His head

A scepter in His hand

"Hail, to the King of the Jews," they said

They did not understand.



Like a lamb to the slaughter

they led Him away as the prophets
foretold.

He carried our sins and our sorrows,

to Golgotha, to the
place they call the Skull.



Now Satan came to Jerusalem

"The
death of God," his command

"Give us Barabbas," the people said

They
did not understand.



Like a lamb to the slaughter

they led Him
away as the prophets foretold.

He carried our sins and our sorrows,

to Golgotha, to the place they call the Skull.



"For dogs have
compassed me

The assembly of the wicked have inclosed me

The
pierced my hands and my feet

I may tell all my bones

They look and
stare upon me

They part my garments among them

and cast lots upon
my vesture" (Psalm 22:16-18).



Worthy is He who was slain on the
cross

The Messiah, the King of the universe!

Honor and pow'r, glory
and might

To the God of the skies, to the Lord of earth!

Every knee
shall bow, and every tongue

shall confess the Lord . . .



"He
is despised and rejected of men

A Man of Sorrows and acquainted with
grief,

and we hid as it were our faces from him

He was despised,
and we esteemed Him not (Isaiah 53:3).
