Tourniquet - If I Was There lyrics

[Words & Music: Ted Kirkpatrick] 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 What if I was there, just a face in the croud 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, just the truth He is Heaven's j**el As He marched up that hill I can picture Him still in my mind All the blood and the sweat on His brow As He pa**ed me on by, I could see in His eyes That His pain was a gift of His love He was the sacrifice - the Lamb And He is the great I AM And He paid the price for me The price for you and 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 - could see As He marched up that hillI can picture Him still in my mind All the blood and the sweat on His brow As He pa**ed 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 With one on either side of Him One hurled insults - and one believed And one believed Which one am I [Solo: Ted]
