Full Lyrics
How long, O God, will You neglect my prayer?
Will You forget these tears of dark despair?
Yet not my will, but Yours alone be done:
Forsake not man, but me... Your sinless Son.
I, Christ the Son, obey Your great command,
Enduring punishment for sinful man.
Son and Silent Lamb, I choose this path:
Accept rejection to appease Your wrath.
Why, My God, have You forsaken me?
Have You now refused my final plea?
I cry out in sorrow, pain, and fear,
You turn Your back in silence disappear.
I, Christ the Son, bear all their sin alone,
Embracing judgment from Your glorious throne.
As Son & spotless Lamb, I shed my blood
To bring them boldly to Your face my God.
As Son and Lamb,
As Son & spotless Lamb, I shed my blood
To bring them boldly to Your face, my God.
Forsake not man, but me, Your sinless Son.
