Dark was the night, and cold the ground
on which the Lord was laid;
his sweat like drops of blood ran down;
in agony he prayed.
"Father, remove this bitter cup,
if such thy sacred will;
if not, content to drink it up
thy pleasure to fulfill."
Go to the garden, sinner, see
those precious drops that flow;
the heavy load he bore for thee;
for thee he lies so low.
Dark Was the Night, Cold Was the Ground was written by Blind Willie Johnson.
Dark Was the Night, Cold Was the Ground was produced by Sheldon Gomberg.
Rickie Lee Jones released Dark Was the Night, Cold Was the Ground on Fri Feb 19 2016.
