here in the silence it's time to recall
the sacrifice that Jesus made
to rescue us all
from somewhere in the distance
i heard you call my name
i saw you in the garden
i heard you when you prayed

you said Lord take this cup
if there's any other way
please lift me up
so that they might be saved

on a hill that they called Calvary
your body was hung
on a rough wooden cross
your work almost done
and when it was over
your side was pierced
the curtain was shattered
your Spirit released

and you said Lord take this cup
cause there's no other way
please lift me up
so that they might be saved

and i will remember the way that i felt the way my body trembled
before you i knelt
oh Lord you came and touched my life forever i will stand
before your throne in heaven
my life in your hand

so i take this cup, remember that day
i will lift up your Holy name in praise

now if you really listen
sometimes you can hear
the pounding of the nails
like a heartbeat so real
and now Lord we thank you
for how you set us free
and how you rose again
so death we won't see

now i'll take this cup
remember that day
i will lift up your Holy name in praise
