I Was
Words© 2014 by Mollie Pearce McKibbon
I was the whiplash and I was the thorns
That made my Saviour bleed.
It’s sin that caused him pain and suffering,
But he’s forgiven me.
Refrain:
He paid the price for me.
He paid and set me free.
Jesus, Jesus, my precious Lord,
He paid the price for me.
I was the hammer and I was the nails
That pierced his hands and feet.
My sins were laid upon his dear head
And he paid the full receipt.
I was the sword plunged into his body
To prove that he had died.
And I was the stone that sealed his tomb,
But he rose on Eastertide!
