[D] [D]
[G]
[C] He led them down the [F] pathway to the garden, knowing life would never be [G] the same.
[C] For though Gethsemane was now [F] so peaceful,
[D] none of them would leave the way [G] they came.
[C] And as the three [F]
disciples [C] knelt in silence, for the Master had commanded [F] them to be quiet and pray,
they watched him slip away into [C] the shadows, for his Father's [G] perfect will he [C] must obey.
And [F] he went a little farther, [C] and he prayed a little harder, oh, but heartache on his way to [G] Calvary.
And [C] though he could help Kep from [C] going, [F] what a thrill there is in knowing [C] that he went a little [G] farther for me.
[Bb]
[Eb] Now once again [Ab] in battle, [Eb] Lord, I've fallen.
I try so hard to always do [Bb] what's right, but [Eb] it seems this world is so [Ab] much darkness.
It [F] would be so easy just to quit [Bb] the fight, [Eb] oh, but then I [Ab] see you kneeling [Ab] [Eb] in that garden, and hear you praying.
Father, [Ab]
Lord, just to thank you with that [Eb] vocation,
[F] well, it gives me the strength [Bb] to get up one [Eb] more time.
And [Ab] he went a little farther, [Eb] and he prayed a little harder, oh, but heartache on his way to [Bb] Calvary.
And though [Eb] he could help Kep from going, [Ab] what a thrill there is in knowing [Eb] that he went a [Bb] little farther [Eb] for [F] [Ab] me.
Yes, [Eb] he went a [Bb] little farther [Eb] for me.
