If you came by me would I crown you my king
Or brush you off as though I really didn't
See
If you walked by my side would our
Souls then be unified
I swore your name
Would never be denied

But I took up
This hammer
And laughed at all your
Slander
And pierced your hands
With
The nails of blasphemy
How could I do this?
I don't know
Said something forced me to it,
So
Spit in your face and passed you by
(I'd forgotten those words "your name won't be
Denied")

But time and time again i'd
Live that life of sin
I knew it hurt you bad
But I wasn't ready to give in
"Maybe
Someday," but not this day I said
I wanted
To live my life I was willing to pay the
Price

Chorus

But
Looking into my eyes I knew you felt this heart's
Cry
I needed you bad my life was oh so
Sad
But looking back at all this pain, this
Guilt, this strife
Would you take it all
Away if I were to give you back my life?

But you said "i've forgiven thee"
And you said "i've forgiven thee" (repeat)

He was hanging on a cross
With a
Crown of thorns in his head (repeat)

But you said "i've forgiven thee"
And you
Said "i've forgiven thee" (repeat)
