22.  UPON MOUNT OF OLIVES
                 ...................... ... ..  )ff[AEfiii6l/6i.iiJ6s
                       Luke 223'lPASSI0N7 Epfi"1:TGRACE
                Upon Mount of Olives, there was a great pleading,
                   A lonely man weeping, He cried unto God;
                 In pray'r He was seeking His Father's protection,
                   His sorrow so bitter flowing from His heart.
                               CHORUS
                In solitude, in that painful and such bitter anguish,
                           Endured out of love;
             There alone, with the songbirds He formed a great pageant,
                           Lifting up His cries.
                                  2
                   And so He was taken, my Jesus to Calv'ry,
                     And with Him the sins of all humanity;
                His death was then sentenced, reward for his favors,
                  Exchange for his wonders, He drank bitter gall.
                                  3
                And when Jesus passed on at the cross in Calvary,
                  He claimed to the heavens, lifting up his voice;
                   This way He surrendered His glorious spirit,
               And sealed was the cov'nant, the pact with the LORD.
                                 4
               And when my soul wandered lost in all the darkness,
                    I heard of the message of a Man of God;
                 And it was through Jesus the hope of salvation,
              Which came from the heavens through the Man of God.
