On Calvary

I was there
When you were nailed to the tree
Standing in the crowd 
Wondering why you would die for me 

Three days 
Is a long time to wait 
When questions are unanswered 
And all you feel is shame 

I was there
Just the twinkle in your eye 
It wasn't fair 
The way they nailed that sign 

And when they laughed 
I was filled with hate 
When they cast their bets 
I know you felt the weight 

Was it me?
Did I drive the nails 
Was I to blame? 
It's more than I can tell 

On Calvary 
My hope is restored 
On the hill where my Savior died 
To try and save the world 
Despised and rejected 
Shamed and neglected 
All for me 
On Calvary
