Jesus climbed the hill To the garden still His steps were heavy and slow Love and a prayer Took Him there To the place only He could go Gethsemane Jesus loves me So He went willingly To Gethsemane He felt all that was sad, wicked or bad All the pain we would ever know While His friends were asleep He fought to keep His promise made long ago Gethsemane Jesus loves me So He went willingly To Gethsemane The hardest thing that ever was done The greatest pain that ever was known The biggest battle that ever was won This was done by Jesus The fight was won by Jesus Gethsemane Jesus loves me So He gives his gift to me In Gethsemane Gethsemane Jesus loves me So He gives his gift to me In Gethsemane
