I should have been crucified I should have suffered and died I should have hung on the cross in disgrace but Jesus God's Son took my place I should have hung on the cross in disgrace but Jesus God's Son Jesus God's Son took my place
The crowns of thorns The spear in his side And the pain It should have been mine Those rusty nails were meant for me Yet Christ took them And let me go free
I was guilty with nothing to say And they were coming to take me away But then a voice from Heaven was heard that said Let him go and take me instead
