In the garden of Gethsemane
Jesus bore the burdens alone
He prayed for the sinners of the world
Whom His blood would atone
Father let this cup pass from me
But not my will but thine own
While His disciples were sleeping
Jesus bore the burdens alone
Yes Jesus bore the burdens alone
Jesus bore the burdens alone
All the sins of the world
Jesus took for His own
And then He suffered and died
For our sins to atone
And there on Calvary's cross
Jesus bore the burdens alone
Standing accused before the high priest
Jesus bore the burdens alone
Even Peter denied he knew Him
So he wouldn't be stoned
Standing condemned at the hands of Pilate
No regret by Jesus was shown
As they nailed Him there on the cross
Jesus bore the burdens alone
Upon the cross there on Calvary
Jesus bore the burdens alone
Though He could have called on the angels
To come and take Him home
He took upon Him the sins of the world
Every sin that was ever known
To make a way for lost sinners
Jesus bore the burdens alone
