| One night as I lay sleeping
|
| I could hear children singing a song
|
| When I woke up I was weeping
|
| And I knew that something was terribly wrong
|
| Who are all those children
|
| And what do they want with me?
|
| What’s that song they’re singing?
|
| Something about Calvary
|
| Calvary
|
| Up on Calvary
|
| Jesus Said, Don’t weep for me No, don’t weep for me Weep for your children instead
|
| Who are all of those children anyway?
|
| They ought to be home in bed
|
| What happened to your Mama?
|
| Where has your Daddy gone?
|
| What happened to your big sister
|
| And why are you singing that dreadful song?
|
| Take up your cross and follow
|
| Wake up from your sleep
|
| Wake up, wake up in sorrow
|
| Wake up, wake up and weep
|
| Take up your cross and follow
|
| Won’t you follow me?
|
| Wake up, wake up in sorrow
|
| Wake up on Calvary. |
