Story behind the song
I wrote this just before the "Passion of the Christ" film came out in the UK. It's proved effective in leading people into a deeper realisation of what Jesus did for them, and leading them into the place of worship from there.
Lyrics
Whipped and scarred and scorned Body racked and torn Spat upon and bruised, he was despised Jesus Christ the King Bowed to suffering In among the jeering and the cries This was done for me To set this sinner free And this so I could be A child of God (Chorus) So I will sing, of the glory and the shame And I will tell that He died and rose again And I’ll proclaim That Jesus Christ has paid the price And by his grace my life has been redeemed (And I am free) In pain and agony He hung upon the tree The precious Son of God was crucified He took my shame and sin Nailed it up with Him Forsaken and alone, for me he died But the victory was won And death has been undone With the triumph of the Son Over the grave Chorus He is worthy of glory and honour For Holy, Holy, Holy is His name (rpt)
