Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Why has my God my soul forsook?

Nor will a smile afford

Thus David once in anguish spoke

And thus are dying old

[Verse 2]

Oh, it's your chief to light, to dwell

Among your praising sings

And yet you hear us groan as well

And pity our complaints

[Verse 3]

Our fathers trusted in Your name

And great deliverance found

But He's a worm despised of men

Who trod Him to the ground

[Verse 4]

Men shake their heads and pass Him by

And laugh His soul to scorn

In vain He trust in God they cry

Neglected and forlorn

[Verse 5]

But you are here formed His flesh

By your own mighty word

And since He hung upon the breast

His hope was in the Lord

[Verse 6]

Why would His father hide His face

When forced and threatening around

In His dark hour of deep distress

And not a bit profound

[Verse 7]

Why oh why, my God?

Why oh why, my God?

[Verse 8]

For the joy set before Him

He endured

And He's seated at the right hand of the Lord

[Verse 9]

Well done, good and faithful

Well done

Well done, good and faithful one

[Verse 10]

Behold your dear one left among

The cruel and the proud

As mighty bulls so fierce and strong

As lions roaring loud

[Verse 11]

From Earth and hell His sorrows meet

To multiply the pain

They nail His hands, they pierce His feet

And mock Him yet again

[Verse 12]

Yet if Your sovereign hand let loose

The rage of Earth and hell

Why would my heavenly father bruise

The son He loved so well?

[Verse 13]

He prayed in dark Gethsemane

Withhold this biter cup

But He resigned His will to thee

And drank the sorrows up

[Verse 14]

Our Savior cried with David's grief

In groans I waste my breath

The hand has brought me down beneath

The bitter dust of death

[Verse 15]

And then he gave His spirit up

To trust it in your hand

His dying flesh reposed in hope

To rise at your command

[Verse 16]

Why oh why, my God?

Why oh why, my God?

[Verse 17]

For the joy set before Him

He endured

And He's seated at the right hand of the Lord

[Verse 18]

Well done, good and faithful

Well done

Well done, good and faithful

Well done

Well done, good and faithful one
