The Storm Gathers ft. Helen Tucker Lyrics

If they'd only known that these few days would be his last

Within a week he'd wear a thorny crown

The storm was gathering overhead and plans were being laid

To squash their new Messiah and bring Him down

The priests feared revolution, they feared the wrath of Rome

They didn't like what Jesus had to say

So it was decided behind the Temple doors

For all their sakes He must be put away

For the sake of the people

Jesus must die

Jesus must die

For the sake of the people

Jesus must die

Jesus must die

And Judas, one of his disciples went into the priests

And asked them what for Jesus they would pay

So thirty silver pieces was the bounty on his head

And Judas was the one who would betray
