The Lamb's Lament || Passion Recital 2025 || St. James Mar Thoma Church, London

A choice as hard as stone - the path that was His alone - the Hosanna praises He was welcome with - the whispers that He heard at His back - the kiss that betrayed Him - the curses He was imprecated with - the thorns that crowned His head - the nails that pierced Him - all these watched Him silently as He looked out with mercy in His eyes and uttered "Forgive them, Father. It is done." St. James Mar Thoma Church Choir weeps, singing "The Lamb's Lament". Words: Pamela Stewart (BMI) Music: Brad Nix (ASCAP) "The Lamb's Lament" He turned to face Jerusalem, a choice as hard as stone. He knew the task that lay ahead; the path was his alone. The people gathered in the street, the palms upon the ground. “Hosanna to the King!” they cried, “Forever Yours the crown!” “Jerusalem, Jerusalem, I weep for you this day. I come to you with open arms, but you will turn away, you will turn away.” He heard the whispers at His back. The silver had been paid. As Judas kissed Him on the cheek, the Saviour was betrayed. The soldier struck Him on the face. They cursed and called Him names. And as the crowd cried, “Crucify!” the lamb was led away. “Jerusalem, Jerusalem, so many ways I tried to gather you with open arms, but you would not be mine, you would not be mine.” And now His head is crowned with thorns. They nail Him to a tree. He hangs between the earth and sky for all the world to see. The lamb looks out into the crowd with mercy in His eyes. “Forgive them, Father. It is done. It is done.” He bows His head and dies. “Jerusalem, Jerusalem, O what more could I do but open up my arms again and give myself for you, give myself for you? Jerusalem. I give myself for you.” #marthomasyrianchurch #marthomachurch #stjameschurch #marthomachurch #jesus #holyweeksongs
