It’s Friday. Jesus is praying.
Peter’s a sleeping. Judas is betraying
But Sunday’s comin’
It’s Friday. Pilate’s struggling.
The council is conspiring. The crowd is vilifying.
They don’t even know
That Sunday’s comin’
It’s Friday. The disciples are running,
Like sheep without a shepherd.
Mary’s crying. Peter is denying.
But they don’t know
That Sunday’s a comin’
It’s Friday. The Romans beat my Jesus.
They robe him in scarlet. They crown him with thorns.
But they don’t know
That Sunday’s comin’
It’s Friday. See Jesus walking to Calvary.
His blood dripping. His body stumbling.
And his spirit’s burdened
But you see, it’s only Friday
Sunday’s comin’
It’s Friday. The world’s winning.
People are sinning. And evil’s grinning
It’s Friday.
The soldiers nail my Savior’s hands - To the cross
They nail my Savior’s feet - To the cross
And then they raise him up
Next to criminals
It’s Friday
But let me tell you something
Sunday’s comin’
It’s Friday. The disciples are questioning
What has happened to their King?
And the Pharisees are celebrating
That their scheming - Has been achieved.
But they don’t know… It’s only Friday.
Sunday’s comin’
It’s Friday. He’s hanging on the cross.
Feeling forsaken by his Father
Left alone and dying - Can nobody save him?
It’s Friday. But Sunday’s comin’
It’s Friday. The earth trembles.
The sky grows dark. My King yields his spirit
It’s Friday. Hope is lost.
Death has won. Sin has conquered
and Satan’s just a laughin’
It’s Friday. Jesus is buried
A soldier stands guard - And a rock is rolled into place
But it’s Friday
It is only Friday
