posting on behalf of andrew

hihi! this post is actually andrew's creations. it's 2 songs that he composed and wants to be put online. so here goes:

THE CRUCIFIXION

They found Him in the garden
Praying with His friends
He told them "I am He"
And they took Him away
His friends ran
they didn't want to be with Him
they left Him all alone to die with thieves

CHORUS
we deserve this
but this man has done no wrong
what has He done to deserve this
Nothing
we have cheated and have lied
we have killed and we have stolen
but still He died for us

they brought Him before the hight priests
who accused Him of saying
i will destroy the temple
and rebuild it in three days
"how can you do this?" they said
they condemned this as blasphemy
and sentenced Him to die (CHORUS)

He was handed to the soldiers
who viciously beat Him
they forced a crown of thorns
upon His head
they gave Him a purple cloak for fun
play the prophet Christ
who beat you (CHORUS)

they brought Him before the crowd
with Pilate as the Judge
"who should i release?" He asked
Barabbas or this man
Barabbas they shouted
Barabbas they cried
Pilate had no choice he sentenced Jesus to die (CHORUS)

He took up the cross and walked
He fell so the soldiers got simon
to help Him
His face was wiped by Veronica
as reward He left His face upon the cloth
women of Jerusalem do not weep
for me but for your children (CHORUS)

He was nailed to the cross
by people He would die for
Father forgive them they know not what they do
they raised Him up
with thieves on either side
if you are the Christ
save yourself and us (CHORUS)


you will be with me today He said
you will be with me in heaven
Eli Eli lama sabachthani
then He died upon the cross
died for us, died for the
people He so loved (CHORUS)


HOLY SONG #1 (sorry, couldn't think of a name)

VERSE 1
When i look up into the sky
i know that someone's watching over me
ever loving, ever caring
our loving father who reigns on high

CHORUS
o god you are wonderful to me
and you have called us all to be
brothers to each other
to forgive and to love
as you loved us

VERSE 2
when i look into the sea
i know you're always watching me
and all the wonders of your creation
will bless your name and joyfully await
the day you come from on high (CHORUS)

BRIDGE
we know that you are always there
watching over us
we will glorify your holy name
in you we place your trust

O god you are wonderful to us
as we go about our day to day business
you have called us all together
brothers to each other
as your children we will bless your holy name

repeat VERSE 2

Both songs by Andrew Goh
Ok, actually the only resons I wrote these were because I finished my lit essay and that the physics teacher didn't come.
