If I Was There

LETRA

If I Was There

I close my eyes and think about calvary,
i see it happening right in front of me.
the back that bore the whip,
the head that held the crown of thorns,

what if i was there,
would i even care?
would i even care?
or would i only stare?
1st bridge
What if i was there, just a face in the crowd?
would i hide in shame or would i laugh out loud?
would i pity him or think that he is just a fool?
another criminal,
or just the truth?
or just the truth?
he is heaven's jewel!

and as he marched up that hill,
i can picture him still,
in my mind;
all the blood and the sweat on his brow,
and as he passed me on by,
i could see in his eyes,
that his pain,
was a gift of his love.
2nd bridge (into key change)
He was the sacrifice, the lamb
and he is the great i am,
and he paid the price for me,
the price or you & me,
you and me.
He made the deaf to hear again
he called the sinful man a friend.
he walked that hill for me,
so my blind soul could see.
And as he marched up that hill,
i can picture him still,
in my mind;
all the blood and the sweat on his brow,
and as he passed me on by,
i could see in his eyes,
that his pain,
was a gift of his love.
I close my eyes and think about calvary,
i see it happening right in front of me.
two criminals were there,
one on either side of him,
one hurled insults
and one believed,
and one believed,
which one am i?
