• Every time I fail again,
    I have to wonder what it does.

    Does it make the blood
    pour faster now?
    Does it make the thorns
    dig deeper Lord?
    Does it make you cry again,
    "Eloi, Eloi, lama sabacthini?"

    Every time that I deny your name,
    Every time I say, "No, God, not me,"
    I have to wonder what it does.

    Does it make the blood
    pour faster now?
    Does it make the thorns
    dig deeper Lord?
    Does it make you cry again,
    "Eloi, Eloi, lama sabacthini?"

    Oh Lord! Oh Lord!
    I don't want to hurt you anymore!
    I don't want to cause you pain again!
    Help me Lord!
    Don't let me fail again!

    Does it make the blood
    pour faster now?
    Does it make the thorns
    dig deeper Lord?
    Does it make you cry again,
    "Eloi, Eloi, lama sabacthini?"

    Does make you hear them cry,
    "Crucify! Crucify!"
