Time stood still
On Calvary’s hill
Oh that he didn’t have to suffer
he didn’t have to die
He could have asked why,
But he knew it had to be.
If we were to live eternally
It had to be.
Would that you could see
Just how much he cared.
He willing placed himself there
He died on the cross
To save a world that was lost.
No one else would have given their life.
No one else would have paid such a price
But he loved us so much
He died for us
He knew it had to be.
In order for us to have life,
And have it more abundantly,
He knew it had to be
It had to be
It had to be.
He knew he had to die
So, he never asked why
He willingly gave his life
For us he made the sacrifice
For us, time stood still
On Calvary's Hill
