Lyrics
WE STOOD AND WATCHED
We were caught up in that crowd
When the shouting grew so loud.
We were shouting blasphemy,
on that road to Cavalry
What makes Him think He’s our Savior?
He can’t even save Himself,
Look how He bleeds like everyone else.
A crown of thorns upon His head,
Hang on that cross until He’s dead.
Sentenced to die with common men.
Put to rest this talk of Savior,
How can He be the chosen one?
If He really is God’s Son
Why can’t He stop what we have done?
We stood and watched as He walked by without a tear in our eye.
We laughed and shouted blasphemy on that road to Cavalry.
We stood and watched as He walked by. We stood and watched as He walked by.
(bridge)
On the third day at the tomb we just watched in disbelief.
How could this man be alive we watched Him die out on that cross.
(repeat chorus)
Then to our surprise He spoke.
Don’t be afraid is what He said
For I have risen from the dead.
We all fell down to our knees.
As we begged forgive us please.
Go and tell the world it’s true.
Believe in me and live again.
We stood and watched as He walked by, then we all began to cry.
Now go and witness what you’ve seen on this road at Cavalry.
We stood and watched as He walked by.
We stood and watched as He walked by.
