One morning past daybreak as the crowd slowly gathered
Like a sheep He was humble to His Father's own will
So sad was His face that the birds hushed their singing
They were walking my Lord up Calvary's Hill
On the cross as He hung there, shame was forsaken
As they drove the nails in His hands and His feet
As death closed His eyes His cries went to heaven
"Oh Father forgive them", I hear Him repeat
One morning past daybreak as the crowd slowly gathered
Like a sheep He was humble to His Father's own will
So sad was His face that the birds hushed their singing
They were walking my Lord up Calvary's Hill
In a tomb He was laid but, death could not hold Him
He was God's only Son in this world below
On a cross He would give the Plan of Salvation
I want to thank Jesus for He's coming again
One morning past daybreak as the crowd slowly gathered
Like a sheep He was humble to His Father's own will
So sad was His face that the birds hushed their singing
They were walking my Lord up Calvary's Hill
