They bound the hands of Jesus

in the garden where he prayed

They led Him thro’ the street in shame

They spat upon the Savior

so pure and free from sin

They said, “Crucify Him! He’s to blame.

 

Ch: He could have called ten thousand angels

to destroy the world and said Him free

He could have called ten thousand angels

But he died alone, for you and me.

 

2. Upon His Precious head

They placed a crown of thorns

They laughed and said “Behold the King”

They struck Him and they cursed Him

And mocked his holy name

All alone He suffered everything.

 

Ch: He could have called ten thousand angels

to destroy the world and said Him free

He could have called ten thousand angels

But he died alone, for you and me.

3. When they nailed him to the cross

His mother stood near by

He said “woman behold they son”

He cried , “I thirst for water

They gave Him none to drink

Then the sinful work of man was done.

 

Ch: He could have called ten thousand angels

to destroy the world and said Him free

He could have called ten thousand angels

But he died alone, for you and me.

4. To the howling mob He yielded

He did not for mercy cry

The cross of shame He took alone

And when He said it’s finished

He gave Himself to die

Salvation’s wondrous plan was done.

 

Ch: He could have called ten thousand angels

to destroy the world and said Him free

He could have called ten thousand angels

But he died alone, for you and me.
