(Isaiah 53:3)
I have sat down in the dirt of my anguish
Felt the grip of despair 'round my neck
Others frown at the ash, my ripped clothing
Their discomfort has turned their care to dread
So loneliness only adds to the load I bear
Man of Sorrows, my Lord
You too know this load
And you see me
Everything that this world breaks
You've felt upon your own skin
Who better than Jesus to understand?
I have walked with the world's weight on my shoulders
And you know for you carried it on yours
Others turn when they come to see my suffering
But your eyes never fall from who is yours
This poison burns as I drink it down
You know - you drained the cup
Man of Sorrows, my Lord
You too know this road
And you see me
Everything that this world breaks
You've felt upon your own skin
Who better than Jesus to understand?
When friends run scared
And the darkness closes in
Man of Sorrows - my joy!
You too know this load
And you see me
Everything that this world breaks
You've felt upon your own skin
Who better than Jesus to understand?
Everything that this world breaks
You've felt upon your own skin
Who better than Jesus to understand?
Who better than Jesus to understand.
