Mat James writes: It's Easter, that Gethsemane journey, that lonely Last Supper and that tormented time hanging around on the cross, and those
"Why hast thou forsaken me" bluesy-emotions.
And He came with them to a place called Gethsemane, and said to His disciples, “My soul is deeply grieved"…
And One by one, the guests arrive, The guests are coming through, The open-hearted many, The broken-hearted few; and they’re there, they attend, but do they understand what the message is about…
And no one knows where the night is going
And no one knows why the wine is flowing
Oh love I need you
I need you
I need you
I need you
Oh . . . I need you now
And those who dance, begin to dance
Those who weep begin
And "Welcome, welcome" cries a voice
"Let all my guests come in."
And no one knows where the night is going ...
And all go stumbling through that house
in lonely secrecy
Saying "Do reveal yourself"
or "Why has thou forsaken me?"
And no one knows where the night is going ...
All at once the torches flare
The inner door flies open
One by one they enter there
In every style of passion
And no one knows where the night is going ...
And here they take their sweet repast
While house and grounds dissolve
And one by one the guests are cast
Beyond the garden wall
And no one knows where the night is going ...
Those who dance, begin to dance
Those who weep begin
Those who earnestly are lost
Are lost and lost again
And no one knows where the night is going ...
One by the guests arrive
The guests are coming through
The broken-hearted many
The open-hearted few
And no one knows where the night is going ...
