In Garden of Gethsemane (Narrative)
We are on the mount of Olives
Now just outside the gate of the garden of Gethsemane
Where Jesus prayed, where He sweated blood, where He was betrayed
Denied and finally at this place He was arrested
We are entering at the gate now at the garden of Gethsemane
Ash and olive trees beautiful flowers, it's a very beautiful place
Where Christ often came to pray, to meditate
Olive trees are probably two thousand years old or more
And now there's a possibility and a very strong possibility
That beneath or around some of these very same olive trees
That we see here Jesus himself sat or stood with His disciples
You know, Jesus knew his divine purpose right from the very beginning
And that last night of His life here in the garden of Gethsemane
He knew that His hour had come
He was born human just like any of us and He didn't want to die
He prayed and as a matter of fact He prayed to be spared the death
That He knew that was very near
Here within a very few feet of where I'm standing Jesus stood
And when they came to arrest him, He said I am He whom you seek
And they took him away
If Jesus had not had a divine purpose in dying
He through His divine power could have been
Delivered as it's indicated
That He delivered Shadrack, Meshack
And Abednigo from the fiery furnace
Many, many years before the time of Christ
King Nebuchadnezzar looked into the fiery furnace
And saw that the three men were walking around in the fire
And he said of the spirit that was there protecting them
The form of the fourth is like the Son of God
Now just outside the gate of the garden of Gethsemane
Where Jesus prayed, where He sweated blood, where He was betrayed
Denied and finally at this place He was arrested
We are entering at the gate now at the garden of Gethsemane
Ash and olive trees beautiful flowers, it's a very beautiful place
Where Christ often came to pray, to meditate
Olive trees are probably two thousand years old or more
And now there's a possibility and a very strong possibility
That beneath or around some of these very same olive trees
That we see here Jesus himself sat or stood with His disciples
You know, Jesus knew his divine purpose right from the very beginning
And that last night of His life here in the garden of Gethsemane
He knew that His hour had come
He was born human just like any of us and He didn't want to die
He prayed and as a matter of fact He prayed to be spared the death
That He knew that was very near
Here within a very few feet of where I'm standing Jesus stood
