The world's in darkness, but I cannot sleep.
All my friends want to be with me,
But they cannot wait for dreams.
I am surrounded by the ones who love me most,
But I have never felt so alone.

I can see all that is to come.
I know what God is asking.
I know how I am to love.

O Father, I know you can hear me!
Is there any other way?
Another prayer to pray?

Father, if your love permits,
Let this cup pass me by.
Still let it be as you would have it,
Not as I.

I know my betrayal is a never-ending one.
And I know salvation's in the hands of the Son.
So I fall to the earth and my knees hit the ground,
Then I bury my face in the darkness that surrounds me.

How much more will my heart break?
Peter, stay and pray with me--can you stay awake?

Do I believe that you really love me?
Cause if you love me, must you ask me for this yes?
And every generation from now all will call me blessed.
Do you see the angel crying at the blood that once was sweat?
