I bore a king! I bore a king!
I knew the honey, now the sting is all I know.
Where did the honey go?
That joyful day at Cana when you turned water into wine...
That was the first time I saw the honey flow.
Somehow I knew this was something you could do.
And then I heard such wonders,
How you cleansed the wretched leper,
And made the blind eye see.
Your holy touch had raised the dead!
Yet I felt a coming dread
As news of these wonders were spread.
You would be sought by the Pharisees,
Who'd claim your words were blasphemy.
I came to tell you of my fear,
But when they told you I was near,
You said, "Who is my mother?
My mother and my brothers are all who do God's will."
I see you work so tirelessly,
Steadfast a danger grows...
Why? Why must they silence you?
Where did the honey go?
What is this cross? How can it be?
Son, they do not hear your words
And now death comes for thee!
I see you struggle with each blow!
Oh, why must God allow such woe?!
Where did the honey go?
Where did the honey go?
