Offertory: I Wonder Why…………………………………………………………………..arr. Helvey
I wonder why, if His disciples were like us here, why they all left Him and ran in fear as the world did crucify him? I wonder why, if they were people like you and me why they refused then to set Him free for the crowd yelled: “Crucify him!” Oh, I wonder why? I wonder why, if they were soldiers like those we know why they all beat Him and mocked Him so, then went out to crucify Him? I wonder why, if they were leaders like those we trust why they were cruel and so unjust when they judged to crucify Him? I wonder why they did know Him and love Him then? Would we now put Him to death again? Would the world still crucify Him. I wonder why?
