Long ago in a far away place
Rough rugged timbers were raised to the sky
There hung a man suspended in s***e
And though He was blameless
They left Him to die
Just to think of the cross
Moves me now
The nails in His hands
His bleeding brow
To think of the cross
Moves me now
It should have been me (2x)
Instead I am free,I am free!
He put an end to my guilt and despair
Turned bitter hating to sweet peace and love
Even the men that put Him up there
Were offered forgiveness and life from above
Rough rugged timbers were raised to the sky

His bleeding brow

Moves me now
It should have been me (2x)
Instead I am free,I am free!
He put an end to my guilt and despair
Turned bitter hating to sweet peace and love
Even the men that put Him up there
Were offered forgiveness and life from above
