well i heard about the day You died
so many times before
it wasn't news to me
when they hung You up upon that cross
broken and abused for all the world to see

they had drove a crown of thorns into Your head
when You had said that You're a King
they said a king deserves a crown
and they beat You until You could barely breath
and the flesh fell from Your bones
and Your blood was on the ground

what a painful day
what a cruel world
what a hateful thing to do
but when You hung upon that tree
You were making all things new

You took all sin
You took all sin
and every bit of shame
that should have bore my name
You held it all within
You took all sin
You took all sin
and I will never know
the pain You had to hold
for righteousness to win
You took all sin

well it seems You were much more than just a man
more than a humble carpenter
a magician or a prophet
and if it's a crime to love and heal and save
then You deserved to die

in that painful way, in this cruel world
I know this much is true
when they left You there to bleed
You were making all things new

You nailed all sin onto Your hands
and broke the back of satan's plan
now victory is won
