Hanging by His arms and legs?
Can you look upon that man,
And see how much He begs?
He begs for you to know Him
Can you taste the briny mixture
As they press it to His lips?
Can you taste the suffering endured
As He's afflicted and He's whipped?
Unmercifully they beat Him
Can you feel the tortured soul
As He spends three days in hell?
Can you feel the tortured soul?
We should know it all too well
That's how we were before Him
Can you hear the mighty thunder
Advancing to this desperate scene?
Can you hear the mighty thunder
As He washes our sins clean?
Now we can stand before Him
Can you smell the rotting flesh
As it decomposes in the tomb?
Can you smell the rotting flesh?
No, it's not a day of doom
He lives and now we know Him
Can you know He lives again
Just like the Bible tells?
Can you know that He is risen?
Yes, and all is well!
I know; He dwells within me
