Well, well, well
Let's go back to the garden of Gethsemane (Let's go back, Let's go back)
Where the Lord said this is not my will but I'll be done
He rolled into to the region on that day (oh yeah)
and the crowd cried out (oh yeah)
And they waved their palms (oh yes they did)
He cried all day

Oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh Zebedee
Oh Zebedee
Oh yes he did
And you let him fall of the hill that day, (my Lord)
And they named him to fall (yes they did)

Oh happy day
Rejoice (Oh happy day)
Rejoice Rejoice
First stone rolled away
Yes it rolled (oh yeah)
Yes He does
He washed my sins away
Oh happy day
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh happy day
Oh happy day
Oh, oh, oh happy day
Oh happy day
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh it was
What a Happy day
