Into the darkness
deeper, setting himself apart
just a little farther
his praying to start
A prayer from the heart
to the heart of God
that the cup may be taken
but submitting to God
Accepting God’s answer
yet praying again
that het cup may be taken
but loving us always
Christ in the garden
making his plea
that the cup may be taken
but drinking it for me.
