Tourniquet - If I Was There Lyrics
I close my eyes and think about CalvaryI see it happening right in front of meThe back that bore the whip, the head that held the crown of thornsWhat if I was thereWould I even care, would I even careOr would I only stareWhat if I was there just a face in the crowdWould I hide in shame or would I laugh out loudWould I pity Him or think that He is just a foolAnother criminalOr just the truth, or just the truthHe is heaven's jewelAs He marched up that hillI can picture Him still in my mindAll the blood and the sweat on His browAs He passed me on by, I could see in His eyesThat His pain was a gift of His loveHe was the sacrifice-the LambAnd He is the great I AMAnd He paid the price for meThe price for you and me-you and meHe made the deaf to hear againHe called the sinful man a friendHe walked that hill for meSo my blind soul could see-could seeAs He marched up that hillI can picture Him still in my mindAll the blood and the sweat on His browAs He passed me on by, I could see in His eyesThat His pain was a gift of His loveI close my eyes and think about CalvaryI see it happening right in front of meTwo criminals were there-with one on either side of HimOne hurled insults and one believed-and one believedWhich one am I?
