I Saw The Man

I often wonder who could be so cruel
To hang my Lord upon a rugged tree
But then I chance to pass
An old looking glass
And there I saw the man staring back at me
I saw the eyes that turned aside
I saw the lips that sadly whispered «Crucify!»
I saw the beast that walked in sin
I saw the hand that drove the nails in Him
I saw the man that crucified the Lord
Let me ask you a question now
Have you ever wondered
About the sacrifice He made
About the pain and the suffering
He went through
Well if you should chance to pass
Some old looking glass
Won’t that be some reflection on you?
You’ll see the eyes that turned aside
You’ll see the lips that sadly whispered «Crucify»
You’ll see those feet that walked in sin
You’ll see your hands that drove the nails in Him
You’ll see the man that crucified the Lord
Coda: I was that man that crucified the Lord
