They saw Him cry in anguish

He was oppressed and he was afflicted, yet he opened not his mouth: he is brought as a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before her shearers is dumb SO HE OPENED NOT HIS MOUTH'(Isa.53:7)

But don't let doctrinal purity get in the way of a good song.

Nice Scripture twisting. But that doesn't refer to the Crucifixion. It's talking about Jesus being judged. It says:

He was oppressed and afflicted,
yet he did not open his mouth;
he was led like a lamb to the slaughter,
and as a sheep before its shearers is silent,
so he did not open his mouth.
8 By oppression and judgment he was taken away.
Yet who of his generation protested?

And this bears that out.

Luke 23:9
9 He plied him with many questions, but Jesus gave him no answer.

Mark 15:5
5 But Jesus still made no reply, and Pilate was amazed.

Matthew 27:12
12 When he was accused by the chief priests and the elders, he gave no answer.

But don't let doctrinal purity get in the way of a good rant.
