Followed all day
Healing and teaching
That He is the way
Objection to perfection
This Jesus they hate
Wanting to kill Him
They'll just have to wait
Protection of perfection
His friends want Him near
Those that are angry
They hide from in fear
Dissection of perfection
They question in vain
Evidence they desire
They cannot obtain
Predilection of perfection
They hail Him as king
As He enters the city
His praises they sing
Rejection of perfection
Judas gives in
To the call of the silver
He hands Jesus in
Protection of perfection
Peter draws out his sword
He injures a soldier
In defense of his Lord
Rejection of perfection
Disavowing his King
Three times in denial
Till the morning cock sings
Dissection of perfection
They interrogate Him
With false accusations
At last they will win
Insurrection against perfection
Crucifixion they cry
Pilate hands Jesus over
On a cross He will die
Rejection of perfection
Jesus picks up my sin
The burden is heavy
A tear drips down His chin
Rejection of perfection
The blood and the sweat
Mix with the tears
As He marches to death
No longer perfection
God turns His back
On Jesus His Son
And the sky becomes black
Rejection of perfection
Jesus gives up His life
To save me from hell
And to give to me - life
