[MATTHEW]
He will not cry out, nor raise His voice
But stay silent for my sake
A smoking flax will not be quenched
A bruised reed will not break

Yet it pleased the Lord to bruise Him
Someone had to pay the price
An offering for sin
The Father’s wrath is satisfied

[JESUS]
Father I think of Mary
I think of the smile that you assigned her
Father I think of her laugh
The one that she’s had since
The moment You designed her

Father I think of Peter, stubborn-hearted
Don't get Me started on Matthew
Father I ask You, is there any other way?

I know there's no other way
And I’m sad to say
But it has to be Me now
Yeah there's a price to pay
Punishment to weigh
That has to complete now
They wrapped themselves in chains
And can't take the blame
But they wanna be free now
And because God so loved the world
He had to lay Me down
Bittersweet got Me weeping bitterly
Literally breaking Me intimately
Walk in the Image’s shoes for a lifetime
Give Me the strength to become weak

Take this cup
Father take this pain away
I'm sweatin’ blood
Is there any other way?

It's ok I'll obey as Your Son
Not My will but Yours be done

So what are You supposed to say to that?
The Shepherd and wolf just crossed paths
And now I'm tattered, will shatter
Strike the shepherd and the sheep will scatter

So what am I supposed to say to this?
We're paving pathways in the wilderness
I insist You win this
Strike the shepherd and the battle’s finished

Ohhh, oooo, ohhh, ooooo

Father stay, I'm fine if I can hear You
I'll be ok as long as I am near You
They’re far away or will they be here soon
Yes they will be here soon
Yes they will appear soon
Bittersweet, got me standing stiffidly
Literally breaking me intimately
Is that a friend standing in the midst of them?
Give Me the strength to become weak

Gripping Me, taking Me and ripping Me

[BIG PHARISEE]
Are you the One, the Son?

[JESUS]
Laughing and hitting Me

[BIG PHARISEE]
Literally, that’s blasphemy you’re kidding me?

[LITTLE PHARISEE]
Save yourself!

[JESUS]
The strength to become weak!

And what am I supposed to say right now?
Silence is the only thing I’ve found
Say something, please, Father
They’ve got Me shakin’ like a sheep to the slaughter
So what are You supposed to say to this?
We're paving pathways in the wilderness
I insist You win this
Strike the Shepherd and the battle’s finished

Peter no! Peter no!

[PETER]
I denied Him!

[JESUS]
Please no! Please no!

[THE PEOPLE]
Crucify him! Crucify him! Crucify him!

[MARY]
Don’t die my Son, just breathe
How can you say Let His will be done

[JESUS]
Let His will be done with Me

And what am I supposed to say to right now?
I'm hangin’ on a cross, I'm bleeding out
Got the weight of the world in My heartbeat
Give Me the strength to become weak

And what are You supposed to say to this?
I paved a pathway in the wilderness
Father are You proud? I did it!
Strike the Shepherd and the battle’s finished!

Ooo, ohhh, oooo, ohhh

[MATTHEW]
The Father turned His back
For the first time in eternity
The Son bearing our shame
And tearing up His image

[JESUS]
The hell is in His absence
I can feel it as He turns from Me

[FATHER]
So for the first time and the last

[JESUS]
It is finished!

[MATTHEW]
As He said these three words
It all came together, made sense to me
This was not a phrase of defeat
But a declaration of victory

[MISS MAGDALENE]
This was the story of a Man
Who saw individuals, He saw one
He didn’t die just for sinners
He died for lost daughters and sons

[DISCIPLES]
But what are we supposed to say right now?
But what are we supposed to say?
What are we supposed to say, right now?
What are we supposed to say?

[MATTHEW]
Yet it pleased the Lord to bruise Him
Someone had to pay the price
An offering for sin
The Father’s wrath is satisfied

But what am I supposed to say right now?
But what am I supposed to say?
What am I supposed to say right now?
What am I supposed to say?

Right now
Right now
