2. Turning Tables
Crowd: He's turning over tables in the temple,
He doesn't like what's going on at all.
He's freeing all the creatures from their cages,
If he's not careful, there'll be such a brawl.
Jesus: You hypocrites, you white-washed tombs!
You steal and lie and cheat.
This is a house of love and prayer,
Not a place for common thieves!

3. Cough Up The Cash

He's worth a fair bit, so show me your stash!
I'll show you Jesus cos I'm his friend
He won’t suspect me, you just tell me when.
Caiaphas: We won't be stopped if we go at night,
You give him a kiss and we'll get him all right.
30 pieces to sell your friend?
We know that "King Jesus" will soon meet his end.
All: Give me the silver, cough up the cash,
He won’t hand him over till he gets your stash.

He won’t suspect him, just you tell him when. (x2)

6. Stay
Jesus: Could you stay and pray with me? It's such a lonely place.
I need you here to comfort me, to see a friendly face

If there could be another way, Oh listen, listen to my prayer. (hf x3)

7. I Know Him!
Girl: I've seen that man before, I know I have.
I recognise his face, he was with Jesus.
He comes from Galilee, surely everyone can see,
Don't you believe that he is one of them?
Peter: I just don’t know who you’re talking about!
I don’t even know the name!
I just came here to warm my hands,
Don’t mention it again!
Man: I’m sure I’ve seen that person before, you know,
He has the kind of face you don’t forget.
He isn’t from round here for that is very clear.
He’s friends with Jesus, I’m prepared to bet!
Peter: I just don’t know who you’re talking about!
I don’t even know the name!
I just came here to warm my hands,
Don’t mention it again!
Woman: You also were with Jesus of Galilee
Your accent surely gives the game away.
I’ve seen your face before, of that I know I’m sure,
Don’t deny you’re one of Jesus’ mates.
All: You just don’t know who you’re talking about!
He doesn’t even know the name!
He just came here to warm his hands,
Don’t mention it again! (x3)

8. Crucify
Crowd: Crucify Jesus, let him die and set Barabbas free.
We are sure we've got it right, on that we all agree.
Take away "The King Of The Jews"
If He's God's Son, we need some proof.
Crucify Jesus, let him die and set Barabbas free.
He’s pretending to be God, the greatest heresy

9. Amazing Love
1. Rejected by his friends
Whipped so hard and flogged
A crown of thorns forced on his head
He heard the soldiers mock
Yet even then in agony,
He managed to forgive
The many folk who’d hurt him so.
He showed amazing love
2. His arms which gave a thousand hugs
And hands so great and good
Were stretched and nailed onto a cross,
A simple cross of wood.
Yet even then, in agony
He managed to forgive
And showed the robber on the cross
How he could truly live.
Yet even then, in agony
He managed to forgive
The people who were killing him.
He showed amazing love.
10. Alive
All: 1. The stone was rolled away when we came up to the cave,
A man in white was shining like the sun.
We went inside to find only grave clothes left behind
There was no body there for it had gone.
He has risen from the dead. It is just as He said
A L I V E , He is alive.
He broke death's awful chains when He came to life again
A L I V E, He is alive!
2. We can’t believe our eyes, what a wonderful surprise,
Our Lord and Saviour risen from the grave.
We thought He’d gone for good,
Though we hoped he never would
He’s come back to us all, O happy day!
He has risen from the dead, It is just as He said.
A L I V E , He is alive!
He broke death's awful chains when He came to life again.
A L I V E, He is alive!
A L I V E, He is alive!
A L I V E, He is alive!
