It Was Me Lyrics

Their heads were low, and their steps were slow
As they walked along that long Emmaus road
Then a man appeared, And as he drew near
He said, "Why are you so sad? Are things really that bad?"
Then they said, "Sir, have you not heard?
You must be a stranger in this town
For the one who came, In the Father's name
Well he has been cut down, They've laid his body in the ground"
And as they walked and talked He began to explain
About this Jesus, and why he came
He opened the scriptures and began to teach
The Preacher of preachers he began to preach...
In the wilderness the children had nothing to eat
But manna from heaven fell down at their feet
When they were dry and thirsty in a foreign land
Living water came forth from the rock and sand
When the three Hebrew children were thrown in the flame
A forth Man appeared and they called Him by name

The Manna, the Water, the Man there on the same
If you're still confused let me say this real plain
(Chorus)
It was me
It was me
I'm the one you left back there on Calvary
(Bridge 1)
Who do you think hung the stars in the sky?
Who do you think made the day and the night?
Who made the flowers?
Who made the trees?
Who made the sun and the moon and the seas?
Who gives life to all who believe?
Who do you think made the blind man to see?
Who made the very air that you breathe?
Who defeated death and won the victory?
(Chorus)
It was me
It was me
I'm the one who died for you on Calvary
It was me
(Bridge 2)
Who loved you when no one else would?
(It was me)
Who saved you when no one else could?
It was me
