You came into town with the shouts of the crowd,"Hosanna you’re the King! Hallelujah! Praises ring!", by the end of the week they’d mock your name
Mocker, sinner, enemy and so undeserving - yet you died so I might live
Lyrics
You came into town with the shouts of the crowd
Hosanna you’re the King Hallelujah Praise ring
By the end of the week they’d mock your name
CHORUS
It should have been me who hung upon that cross
It should have been me who suffered and paid the cost
On the lonely road to Calvary you walked the way for me
Bore my sin and misery it should have been me
I hear the shouts of the crowd as the whip comes down
Each mark was there from me you were bruised beyond belief
Through the blood and pain I see the love in your eyes
As you were on the cross as I hammered in the nails
Forsaken and alone the King far from his throne
But your blood and love paid the price
