Lyrics - Cry From The Cross by Marleys Ghost

One morning in
Jerusalem, about the break of dawn,a great trial was in session,they tried our
Blessed
Lord.
They scorned
Him and they mocked
Him,they made
Him carry a cross.
On top of
Calvary mountain they crucified our
Lord.(
Chorus:)
Oh, the cry (
Oh,
He cried) from the cross,"
Forgive them,
Blessed
Father!"
He died upon the cross.
Oh,
He cried (
Jesus cried) from the cross.
The
Son of
God was dying to save the world from loss.(
Chorus)
Saint
Peter, he denied
Him at the awful trial that night.
He said he never knew
Him - it was an awful sight.
He looked upon
Saint
Peter with eyes of perfect love.
Saint
Peter's heart was broken, he prayed to
God above.(
Chorus)
Crying, "
Father, it is finished!" and
He bowed
His head and died.
The world was left in darkness, the graves were open wide.
An earthquake shook
Jerusalem, the dead walked into town.
The multitude was frightened,
God's wrath came pouring down.(
Chorus)
