Letra

The day that Jesus arrived in Jerusalem
The adventure almost over, the night he hadn't slept
Dreams and premonitions made him tired and emotional
And that's why Jesus wept

He wasn't scared of dying, he'd made that commitment
Fulfilling the old prophecy, his bargain he had kept
He was due some satisfaction, but he was deeply troubled
And that's why Jesus wept

Was this his true destiny, or could he still make changes
Someone else's nightmare into which he'd stepped?
Damage limitation couldn't save the situation
And that's why Jesus wept

In his dream he saw the crusade and all wars that would follow
Declared in his name when he thought he'd been direct
Love thy neighbour, do not kill, and turn the other cheek
And that's why Jesus wept

And he saw the inquisition and the burning of the saints
And the conversion of the innocents he swore he would protect
And he saw them bless the bomb that was dropped on Hiroshima
And that's why Jesus wept

Though Peter would betray him, he made him the rock
On which he would build his church to sort of keep him in his debt
A man about to die is allowed some confusion
And that's why Jesus wept
