It was on Holy Wednesday and all in the morning
That Judas betrayed our dear Heavenly King
And was not this a woeful thing
And sweet Jesus we'll call him by name.
It was on Maundy Thursday and all in the morning
They plaited a crown of thorns for our Heavenly King
And was not this a woeful thing
And sweet Jesus we'll call him by name.
It was on Good Friday and all in the morning
They crucified our Savior and our Heavenly King
And was not this a woeful thing
And sweet Jesus we'll call him by name.
It was on Easter Sunday and all in the morning
Our Savior arose, and our Heavenly King
The sun and the moon, they both did rise with Him
And sweet Jesus we'll call him by name.
