I was not there that day,

  When they sentenced You to death.

I was not there the hour,

  You took Your final breath.



I was not there that day,

  They made You walk down that road.

I was not ther the hour,

  Simon helped you carry Your load.



I was not there that day,

  The thorns were placed  on Your head.

I was not there the hour,

  "Father forgive them were the words you said."



I was not there that day,

  The nails pierced Your hands and feet.

I was not there the day,

  Your work on earth complete.



I was not there that day,

  Your blood paid my price for sin.

I was not there the hour,

  You paid so a new life I could begin.



I was not there, my Lord,

  But you paid the price so high.

I was not there, my Savior,

  To participate in Your death,

    or was I?
