Tune: Sussex (There’s a wideness in God’s mercy)
Ent’ring in the holy city,
crowds surround them as they walk,
laying leaves before their progress
on the road that leads to love.
No one knew how things would turn out,
breaks in trust, betrayal, loss
in a week where dark descended
on the road that leads to love.
Friends and followers would gather
round a table for a meal,
suddenly the mood was shattered
on the road that leads to love.
On a cross their friend was murdered,
threatening all their hopes and dreams,
yet despite this they continued
on the road that leads to love.
From the darkness of a cavern,
shone a light direct from God,
offering hope for all to follow
on the road that leads to love.
Here for us the path of promise,
here the way to find true self,
building bonds and showing oneness
on the road that leads to love.
