It Should Have Been Me
You
know He didn't have to, He could have walked away
And
who could have blamed Him, it was an awful price
to pay
For
someone who had never sinned to pay for those who
did
We
always say it was His choice, but who are we
trying to kid
Chorus
It
should have been me, not someone like Him
To
pay for all my faults, for each and every sin
And
I often wonder as He hung on that tree
If
He ever thought that it should have been me
Every stripe upon His back was for something that
I'd done
And
I made the crown of thorns, I picked each and
every one
I
placed the cross upon His back, and prayed that
He would fail
And
I didn't hold the hammer, but I placed each and
every nail
Chorus
It
should have been me, not someone like Him
To
pay for all my faults, for each and every sin
And
I often wonder as He hung on that tree
If
He ever thought that it should have been me
Bridge
And
each time I sin, does He still feel the pain
And
does He ever wonder if He did it all in vain
And
I stop and wonder every now and then
If
He had to do it over would He do it all again
Chorus
It
should have been me, not someone like Him
To
pay for all my faults, for each and every sin
And
I often wonder as He hung on that tree
If
He ever thought that it should have been me©Steve
