Jesus Took Our Place
Jesus Took Our Place…
Jesus gave his life for
people like me!
Because of his death,
I can be free!
His life for ours,
is what was paid!
A way to heaven
has been made!
On his head were placed
the crown of thorns,
Enduring so much
shame and scorn!
The blood from his body…
It flowed that day!
He paid the price…
On Calvary that day!
The nails were placed into
his feet and hands…
The pain he went through
is hard to understand.
His life for ours is
what was given!
That my life can be changed!
And sins forgiven!
Hallelujah to the lamb,
that was slain!
Aren’t you thankful
and glad he came?
