"Then He Bowed His Head And Died" By Larry Ford (FULL)

i'll never forget the first time I heard this song, I thought it was so beautifully written (what else can you expect from Bill and Gloria Gaither?) i've always thought Larry Ford had a wonderful voice as well.

Lyrics: (written by Bill & Gloria Gaither)

He heard a thousand mothers weep
for sons they'd never find
the pain of dads who cannot sleep.
Then he bowed his head, and died.

He saw the brokenness of war
the tears of last goodbyes
He saw the lives all torn apart
Then he bowed his head, and died.

He felt the weight of prisioners chains
He heard their cries at night.
He felt the lash of every whip
Then he bowed his head, and died.

He felt the pain of broken homes
He heard their children cry
Oh he saw despire and hopelessness
Then he bowed his head, and died.

For even to golgotha's hill
all across all those sands of time
Came love just to buy back fallen man
God's son would have to die
Yes to die.
A shout! Split history in two
And it echoed through the sky
Oh, the Father, the Father heard,
"Thy Will Tis Done"
Then he bowed his head, and died.
All Heaven heard
"Thy Will Tis Done"
Then he bowed, his head, and died.

(The lyrics are in 3 sections, because of the character limitation imposed by YouTube. I hope they show up in the right order.)

He heard a thousand mothers weep

For sons they'd never find.

The pain of dads who cannot sleep;

Then He bowed His head and died.

Part 2) (The hiccup @ 3:02, is where the two parts were spliced together) He saw the brokenness of war; The tears of last goodbyes. He saw the lives all torn apart; Then He bowed His head and died. He felt the weight of prisoners chains. He heard their cries at night. He felt the lash of every whip; Then He bowed His head and died. He felt the pain of broken homes. He heard their children cry. Oh, He saw despair and hopelessness; Then He bowed His head and died.

(Part 3) From Eden to Golgothas hill All across the sands of time. Came love just to buy back fallen man God's Son would have to die; Yes, To die.... A SHOUT split history in two And it echoed through the skies. Oh, The Father, the Father heard, Thy will tis done! Then He bowed His head and died! All heaven heard, Thy will tis done! Then He bowed His head and died.
