Jesus Stands Firm Lyrics

Never has greater courage been shown than on that day
Jesus was unshaken by what faced him said "Let these go their way."

They came to arrest armed to attack
When the Lord spoke they fell on the back
Nervous the wicked wriggle and squirm
Facing death Jesus stands firm
They came to arrest armed to attack
When the Lord spoke they fell on the back
Nervous the wicked wriggle and squirm
Facing death Jesus stands firm

Fulfilling the saying "Of them which thou gavest me have I lost none."
By the obedient Son the will of the Father shall be done
By the sacrifice of Christ the battle for salvation is won

Doing the Father's will Jesus will not quit
Put up thy sword into the sheath: Thy cup which my Father hath given me, shall I not drink it

They came to arrest armed to attack
When the Lord spoke they fell on the back
Nervous the wicked wriggle and squirm
Facing death Jesus stands firm
They came to arrest armed to attack
When the Lord spoke they fell on the back
Nervous the wicked wriggle and squirm
Facing death Jesus stands firm

Our Savior was obedient unto death
Jesus was calm and in control until and even after his last breath
