The sky turned dark at midday
As if the sun refused to see
The world grew cold and silent
While He hung between two thieves
His mother stood below Him
Her face a river running dry
And somewhere in the distance
Even angels learned to cry
He spoke to the thief beside Him
"Today you'll walk with Me in light"
Even dying on the timber
He was saving someone's life
Forgive them-that's what left His lips
They do not understand the cost
The only innocent man breathing
Paying for the whole world's loss
Why have You forsaken Me
The cry that shook the firmament
Even God turned away His face
From the sacrifice He sent
At the ninth hour, darkness fell
At the ninth hour, heaven wept
At the ninth hour, the curtain tore
And the promise was finally kept
At the ninth hour, the ground gave way
At the ninth hour, it was finished
And the love that held Him there
Was deeper than the nails that pinned Him
Into Your hands I give My spirit
The final words before the end
The earth cracked open like a wound
The temple curtain ripped and rent
The soldiers fell upon their knees
The centurion spoke what all men knew
"Surely this was the Son of God"
And the whole world trembled with the truth
It is finished
It is finished
It is finished
At the ninth hour, darkness fell
At the ninth hour, heaven wept
At the ninth hour, the curtain tore
And the covenant was kept
At the ninth hour, the ground gave way
At the ninth hour, it was finished
But the love that held Him there
Was greater than a world diminished
