Lyrics:

There came from the skies in the days long ago
The Lord with a message of love
The world knew him not, he was treated with scorn
This wonderful gift from above


They crowned him with thorns, he was beaten with straps
He was wounded and nailed to the tree
But the pain in his heart was the hardest to bear
The heart that was broken for me


[INSTRUMENTAL BREAK]


He came to his home, to his owners he'd love
The sheep that had wandered astray
They heard not his voice, but the friend of mankind
Was halted and driven away


They crowned him with thorns, he was beaten with straps
He was wounded and nailed to the tree
But the pain in his heart was the hardest to bear
The heart that was broken for me


[INSTRUMENTAL BREAK]


I will take up my cross, I will walk by his side
For the pathway of beauty I see
I will follow the Lord and abide in his heart
The heart that was broken for me


They crowned him with thorns, he was beaten with straps
He was wounded and nailed to the tree
But the pain in his heart was the hardest to bear
The heart that was broken for me
