$4.95
This hauntingly beautiful Swedish Easter song is an emotional invitation to partake with the Lord of His sufferings, that we may one day be where He is.
English translation of the original Swedish lyrics:
1. Behold, we go up to Jerusalem
At the time of the holy fast,
To behold how Jesus Christ, the Son of God
Suffers in sinners' stead.
2. Behold, we go up to Jerusalem
Who will go to wake with the Lord,
And, as our Heavenly Father desires,
Taste the bitter cup?
3. Behold, we go up to Jerusalem
To the Savior's cross and pain,
To the Lamb who is sacrificed for the guilt of the world,
For your sins and mine.
4. Behold, we go up to Jerusalem
To the eternally bright city,
The Savior has told us that where He is,
We shall be there with Him.
