He set His face toward the city called Jerusalem
Knowing all the suffering that awaited Him
As tears of deep compassion flowed from eyes of love and grace
He grieved for those who could not know the trials He would face

If they could have known just where the road would lead
If they could have seen the city He could see
If they could have somehow heard the voice that He could hear
They could have known the heart of God through the tears.

As Jesus looked beyond the city to a windswept hill
Already reconciled to His Father’s will
The awesomeness and anguish of the moment filled His eyes
Despising all of Calvary’s shame
He knew the reason why

If they could have known just where the road would lead
If they could have seen the city He could see
If they could have somehow heard the voice that He could hear
They could have known the heart of God through the tears

O Jersusalem lost and wandering lamb
How He longs to gather it again
When this day is done and the Lord is come
Will they put their faith in Him?

If they could have known just where the road would lead
If they could have seen the city He could see
If they could have somehow heard the voice that He could hear
They could have known the heart of God through the tears
