At the gathering of pharisees Where Jesus Christ was tried Pilot washed his hands and said He did no crime to die But an angry crowd was shouting out Let him be crucified And a crown of thorns and wooden cross Would lead him to Paradise Lead him to Paradise When the sun was dimmed on Calvary As darkness filled the sky In the last breath from the Son of Man Oh, Father he did cry Unto you I give my spirit Let this body die Forgive them all for what they've done And lead me to Paradise Lead me to Paradise After lifting up the fallen souls When the third sun found the sky He left the tomb that Joseph choose Revealed in new light Fullfilling all the prophecies And ending all the lies The resurrection of our souls Will lead us to Paradise Lead us to Paradise Two thousand years have passed us by Kingdoms born and died But the light that rose at Calvary Still leads us to Paradise Leads us to Paradise PAL copywrite 2000
