PALM SUNDAY
Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do
A plea, by the Son
As they hammered a nail into his right hand, then into his left
As they judged him among thieves
A plea, by the Son
Forgive them, please Father

Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do
As they stood and laughed, mocking his words, his authority
As they took his clothes and parted them among the people
A plea, by the Son
Forgive them, please Father

Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do
A plea, by the Son
As they spit on him and smote him on the head
As they gave his dry mouth vinegar and gall
He pleaded for them
Forgive them, Father
For they know not what they do
