lyrics version 1
Oh how they hurt you
Oh how they laughed
Oh how they wounded your loving heart
They were strong and able
They drove a nail through each hand
Hm-oh, didn't they understand
Wo-o-wo, I know, now I can see
Wo-o-wo, I know, you did it for them
You did it for me
You made the earth
By your command it moves
They mocked you, come down king of the Jews
I wasn't there in the garden
But I believe you cried
That the sky turned black the moment you died
Wo-o-wo, I know, yes now I can see
Wo-o-wo, I know, you did it for them
You did it for me
They despised your glory
The only son of God
Into the mud, they trampled your crown
You gave your life
So that I could be free
An' I belong to you eternally
Oh-oh-oh
Wo-o-wo, I know, yes now I can see
Wo-o-wo, I know, you did it for them
You did it for me
You did it for me, mm-hmm
You did it for me
Oh how they laughed
Oh how they wounded your loving heart
They were strong and able
They drove a nail through each hand
Hm-oh, didn't they understand
Wo-o-wo, I know, now I can see
Wo-o-wo, I know, you did it for them
You did it for me
You made the earth
By your command it moves
They mocked you, come down king of the Jews
I wasn't there in the garden
But I believe you cried
That the sky turned black the moment you died
Wo-o-wo, I know, yes now I can see
Wo-o-wo, I know, you did it for them
You did it for me
They despised your glory
The only son of God
Into the mud, they trampled your crown
You gave your life
So that I could be free
An' I belong to you eternally
Oh-oh-oh
Wo-o-wo, I know, yes now I can see
Wo-o-wo, I know, you did it for them
You did it for me
You did it for me, mm-hmm
You did it for me
lyrics version 2
Oh how they hurt you
They didn't know from the start
They didn't know how they wounded your loving heart
They were blind and reckless
They drove a nail through each hand
Oh-oh, didn't they understand
Oh oh oh, I know, now I can see
Oh oh oh, I know, you did it for them
And you did it for me
You created the earth
By your command it moves
They mocked you, come down king of the Jews
I wasn't there in the garden
But I believe you cried
And that the sky turned black the moment you died
Oh oh oh, I know, now I can see
Oh oh oh, I know, you did it for them
And you did it for me
You did it for me
You did it for me
You gave your life up
So that I can be free
An' I belong to you eternally
Wo oh oh, I know
You did it for them, you did it for me
Oh oh oh, I know
You did it for them, you did it for us, you did it for me
You did it for me
They didn't know from the start
They didn't know how they wounded your loving heart
They were blind and reckless
They drove a nail through each hand
Oh-oh, didn't they understand
Oh oh oh, I know, now I can see
Oh oh oh, I know, you did it for them
And you did it for me
You created the earth
By your command it moves
They mocked you, come down king of the Jews
I wasn't there in the garden
But I believe you cried
And that the sky turned black the moment you died
Oh oh oh, I know, now I can see
Oh oh oh, I know, you did it for them
And you did it for me
You did it for me
You did it for me
You gave your life up
So that I can be free
An' I belong to you eternally
Wo oh oh, I know
You did it for them, you did it for me
Oh oh oh, I know
You did it for them, you did it for us, you did it for me
You did it for me
