Full Lyrics
[OSTINATO]
Stay with me, remain here with me
Watch and pray
Watch and pray
[SOLO 1]
Stay here and keep watch with me
Watch and pray
Pray not to give way to temptation
The spirit is eager but the flesh is weak
[SOLO 2]
My heart is nearly broken in sorrow
Remain here with me
Stay awake and pray
Father if it is possible let this cup pass me by
Without my drinking it
Your will be done
[ANTIPHON 1]
The Lord Jesus, when he had eaten with his disciples, poured water into a basin and began to wash their feet, saying: This example I leave you.
[ANTIPHON 2]
Lord, do you wash my feet?
Jesus said to him; If I do not wash your feet you can have no part with me.
[VERSE 1]
So he came to Simon Peter who said to him:
Lord, do you wash my feet?
[VERSE 2]
Now you do not know what I am doing, but later you will understand.
[VERSE 3]
If I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet,
Then surely you must wash one another's feet.
[VERSE 4]
If there is this love among you, all will know that you are my disciples,
Jesus said to his disciples:
If there is this love among you, all will know that you are my disciples.
[VERSE 5]
I give you a new commandment,
Love one another as I have loved you, says the Lord.
[VERSE 6]
Faith, hope, and love, let these endure among you.
