No Surprise - Steve Green

He was a man of sorrows, who wept in human pain
He knew the grief of parting and His hunger was the same
He felt the sting of insults, and he bore the weight of sin
He humbly drank the suffering God set before him

[Chorus]
And it should arrive
As no surprise
That tears are gonna come
If you’re called by His name
You’re sure to suffer some
And it should arrive
As no surprise
That tears are gonna come
If you’re called by his name
You’re sure to suffer some.

He did not seek his happiness, He made no earthly claim
For the joy set before him he endured the cross and shame
He was born into the darkness, to shine the light of truth
And if the world hated him, the world will hate you too.

[Chorus]

But consider it joy when you share in his pain
For you’ll share in the glory to come

[Chorus]
