lyrics

Herod:

Lamentation and mourning
Just as the day is dawning
A veil of darkness forming for the mothers of children who are no more

Herod the king has spoken:
"Emmanuel has awoken
Go out in search of the chosen, and kill him where he stands, as it was foretold"

The Pharisees:

Hear what the prophets said:
"He will rise up from the dead"
Who is he who comes in the name of the Lord?

Say what is this? The Holy Ghost?
God from God, Lord of Hosts?
He says he came not to bring peace, but to bring a sword

The Apostles:

In his wake Jerusalem will fall
Lunatics and lepers, he heals them all!
He came to cleanse us of our sins
He is the Messiah, the King of Kings

Pilate:

Bring him to me, Pharisees
Let him be judged

The Christ:

My God, why?
Why have you forsaken me?
When all I did was bleed?
My God, why?
Why have you forsaken me?
When all I did was bleed
For you...

The Multitude:

Thorns, we'll crown his head with thorns
The Jews and Gentiles mourn
Stone, we'll take it stone by stone
The kingdom down below

The Christ:

My God, why?
Why have you forsaken me?
When all I did was bleed?
My God, why?
Why have you forsaken me?
When all I did was bleed
For you...
Solo Atkinson

Pilate:

Heed my words, take your cross, drag it to the Place of Skulls
If as you say, Son of God, let him come redeem his son...

Solo Foley

The Tempter:

Are you not the Holy One?
Can't you chose which throne you sit upon?
Behold the kingdoms of the earth
Cast down and bow to me
Defy your Holy Trinity
Forsake the calling of your birth

The Christ:

I reject your offering
Get behind me, Prince of Sin
I will not toil where the worm doesn't die

The Tempter:

Very well, so be it
All the riches of the world are forfeit
Remove the beam from your eye; we'll meet again in time

Solo Foley

Mary:

On the first day of the week, while the city gently sleeps
For those who find, thou did seek, his return

The Christ:

Go, go spread the word, teach all you've heard
Rise, Fallen Kingdom, rise, to the palace in the sky!

The Christ:

My God, why?
Why have you forsaken me?
When all I did was bleed?
My God, why?
Why have you forsaken me?
When all I did was bleed
For you...
