Were You There Lyrics

WERE YOU THERE?
Were you there when they rolled the stone away?
Were you there that dark and gloomy day?
Were you there the day He gave His life?
Were you there the day He paid the price?
I wasn’t there to see His face
But I’m so glad He took my place
Were you there when they crucified my Lord?
Were you there when they pierced Him in His side?
Were you there the day He bled and died?
Were you there when they nailed Him to the tree?
Were you there when He died on Calvary?
I wasn’t there to see His face
But I’m so glad He took my place
Were you there when they crucified my Lord?

The cross could not kill Him.
The grave could not hold Him.
And Satan thought he had won.
He rose on the third day with authority and power
He reigns forevermore
They despised Him, rejected Him…..but He lives
Blameless, exalted…..He lives
Glory and majesty…..He lives
He reigns, the conquering King…..He lives
They despised Him, rejected Him…..but He lives
Blameless, exalted…..He lives
Glory and majesty…..He lives
He reigns, the conquering King…..He lives
Savior, Master…..He lives
Redeemer, my Ruler…..He lives
Glory, honor, dominion, power, forever and ever…..He lives
[5x]
I wasn’t there to see His face
But I’m so glad He took my place
Were you there when they crucified my Lord?
