Oh The Power
Oh The Power
Song based on the Bible verse:
Luke 22:42
saying, âFather, if it is Your will, take this cup away from Me; nevertheless not My will, but Yours, be done.â
Matthew 26:36-46
36Â Then Jesus came with them to a place called Gethsemane, and said to the disciples, âSit here while I go and pray over there.â 37Â And He took with Him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, and He began to be sorrowful and deeply distressed. 38Â Then He said to them, âMy soul is exceedingly sorrowful, even to death. Stay here and watch with Me.â
39Â He went a little farther and fell on His face, and prayed, saying, âO My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass from Me; nevertheless, not as I will, but as You will.â
40Â Then He came to the disciples and found them sleeping, and said to Peter, âWhat! Could you not watch with Me one hour? 41Â Watch and pray, lest you enter into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.â
42Â Again, a second time, He went away and prayed, saying, âO My Father, if this cup cannot pass away from Me unless I drink it, Your will be done.â 43Â And He came and found them asleep again, for their eyes were heavy.
44Â So He left them, went away again, and prayed the third time, saying the same words. 45Â Then He came to His disciples and said to them, âAre you still sleeping and resting? Behold, the hour is at hand, and the Son of Man is being betrayed into the hands of sinners. 46Â Rise, let us be going. See, My betrayer is at hand.â

Knees to the earth
That You breathed by Your word
As You watched the darkness come
Crushed by the weight of the cost
As You prayed ‘Not my will but Yours be done’
Gethsemane where Heaven met me
Redeemer crowned in endless praise
My Savior name above all names
King Jesus
Take the highest place
2
There on the hill
You surrendered Your will
‘For they know not what they do’
Grief in Your heart
Your hands bear the scars
Of a love that led You to the tomb
Calvary where Heaven met me
Redeemer crowned in endless praise
My Savior name above all names
King Jesus
Take the highest place
Oh the power of the cross
Oh the power of Your blood
Oh the power of the cross
Oh the power of Your blood
Oh the power of the cross
Oh the power of Your blood
Oh the power of the cross
Oh the power of Your blood
Oh the power of the cross
Oh the power of Your blood
Oh the power of the cross
Oh the power of Your blood
Oh darkness
You have lost Your strength
Oh Hell You lost everything
King Jesus
Take the highest place
Oh darkness
You have lost Your strength
Oh Hell You lost everything
King Jesus
Take the highest place
Oh the power of the cross
Oh the power of Your blood
Oh the power of the cross
Oh the power of Your blood
