‘Neath The Old Olive Tree

‘Neath the stars of the night walked the savior of light
In the garden of dew ladened breeze
Where no light could be found Jesus knelt on the ground
There he prayed ‘neath the old olive tree
 
Chorus:
‘Neath the old olive trees
‘Neath the old olive trees
Went the savior alone on his knees
Not my will thine be done cried the father's own son
As he knelt ‘neath the old olive tree
 
All the sin of the world on the savior was hurled
As he knelt in the garden alone
Hear his soul burdened plea let this cup pass from me
Even so not my will thine be done
 
Chorus:
‘Neath the old olive trees
‘Neath the old olive trees
Went the savior alone on his knees
Not my will thine be done cried the father's own son
As he knelt ‘neath the old olive tree
