[Lyric] Petals Rose of Sharon (Sylvia Vines)

Petals (Rose of Sharon)
Written by Sylvia Vines

Verse 1
Oh with His eyes He cried for me
He shed His blood on Calvary
He was born to die
Earthly destiny was the tree
He did it for you
He did it for me

Verse 2
Well on His knees He prayed for me
Said that He gave His life that I’d be free, oh
He was born to die
Part of His destiny Calvary
He did it for you
He did it for me, oh

Chorus
After the petals unfold
Was revealed a story
Story that’s never been told
It tells of love beyond the thorns
He took my place was mocked and scorned
Defeated death as His flesh was torn
The Lamb was slain salvation born
Salvation born
Verse 3
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh oh, oh
Oh with His eyes He cried for me
Said that He shed His blood that I'd be free, oh oh oh oh oh oh
He was born to die
Part of His destiny Calvary
He did it for you (He did it for you)
He did it for me, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Chorus

After the petals unfold (Oh, was revealed a story)
Story that’s never been told
(It tells of love)
It tells of love (Beyond) beyond the thorns
(Said that He took my place)
He took my place (He was mocked and scorn) was mocked and scorned
(Defeated death, yeah, yeah) Defeated death as His flesh was torn
(The Lamb was slain) The Lamb was slain

Repeat Chorus
(Oh after)
After the petals unfold (The petals unfold, yeah)
A story that’s never been told
(Can't nobody tell it like I can, listen)
It tells of love (How He reached down) beyond the thorns
(And picked me up, yeah, yeah)
He took my place (And He set me up on a rock to stay) was mocked and scorned
Defeated death (Even though I wasn't worthy, no) as His flesh was torn
The Lamb was slain (Oh He gave His life for me anyway)
After the petals unfold
(Oh I'm so glad about it)
(Oh, He didn't have to do it but He did yeah)
A story that’s never (A story yeah yeah yeah yeah) been told
(It tells of love yeah)
It tells of love (Oh He was wounded for my transgressions) beyond the thorns
He took my place (How He was bruised for my iniquity) was mocked and scorned
(The chastisement of my peace was upon Him)
Defeated death as His flesh was torn
The Lamb was slain
(The Lamb was slain)
Salvation born
(Oh Salvation born, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
(Salvation born)
Salvation born
