As we enter into Good Friday and the most solemn day of the year for most Christians, I wanted to share this beautiful and haunting music video. It is sung by two of my favorite artists, Brad Paisley and Sara Evans, and they do a masterful job. The video itself contains excerpts mainly from the Passion of the Christ film. Please be warned that the film and the clip can be difficult to watch in parts for many folks due to the realistic and graphic portrayal of the crucifixion of our Lord and Savior.
Nevertheless, as Blessed Pope John Paul II was reported as having said upon seeing a private screening of the film upon its release, "It is as it was."

My people, what have I done to you? Or in what have I offended you? Answer me. What more should I have done, and did not do? I led you out of the land of Egypt, and you prepared a cross for me. I opened the Red Sea before you, and you opened my side with a lance. I gave you a royal scepter, and you have given me a crown of thorns. With great power I lifted you up, and you hung me upon a cross. My people, what have I done to you, or in what have I offended you? Answer me. (~ From the Reproaches of Good Friday)
Blessed be God forever! Amen!
