Cry From The Cross

     One morning in Jerusalem about the break of dawn
     A great trial was in session, they tried our blessed lord
     They scorned him and they mocked him, they made him carry the cross
     On top of Calvary mountain, they crucified my Lord

     [ Oh the cry (Jesus cried) from the cross               ]
     [ Forgive them blessed father, he died upon the cross   ]
     [ Oh the cry (Jesus cried) from the cross               ]
     [ The son of God was dying, to save the world from loss ]

     Saint Peter he denied him at that awful trial at night
     He said he never new him, it was an awful sight
     He looked upon Saint Peter with eyes of perfect love
     Saint Peter's heart was broken, he prayed to God above

     Crying father it is finished then he bowed his head and died
     The world was left in darkness, the graves were open wide
     An earthquake shook Jerusalem the dead walked into town
     The multitudes were frightened, God's wrath came pouring down
