He was a king without a crown
|
Thy hanged him on on his throne
|
And nailed him in the ground
|
The prophet, he upon the tree,
|
Sacrificed himself for the whole world to see
|
He bled for you, he bled for me
|
On that day, that day on Calvary
|
It was a day, forget I never will
|
It was the day the earth stood still
|
|
It was for real
|
Upon the hill
|
The Savior gave his life
|
So you and I might live
|
He had to die
|
To pay redemption's price
|
It was the only day the angels ever cried
|
He died for you, he died for me
|
The lonely road on his way to Calvary
|
It was the day, forget I never will
|
It was the day the earth stood still
|
|
Then came Sunday morning
|
The angels sang and the stone it rolled away
|
It was the day, forget I never will
|
It was the day the earth stood still
|
|
So wipe your weeping eyes
|
'Cause he died for you and I
|
And he's coming back again
|
So every time we sin
|
