Were You There When They Crucified My LORD?

A few more verses for a good, old spiritual:

Were you there when they crucified my LORD?

Were you there when he kissed Him on the cheek?

Were you there when he swore I don't know Him?

Were you there when the innocent's condemned?

Were you there when He fell and could not walk?

Were you there when they spit upon His face?

Were you there when they whipped and beat Him down?

Were you there when they stripped His clothes for fun?

Were you there when they crowned His head with thorns?

Were you there when they nailed Him to the tree?

Were you there when they mocked Him to His face?

Were you there when He longed for one more drink?

Were you there when He groaned and cried in pain?

Were you there when He suffered all alone?

Were you there when he bore the wrath of God?

Were you there when God did forsake His Son?

Were you there when He died and left this world?

Were you there when the sun refused to shine?

Were you there when they pierced Him in the side?

Were you there when they laid Him in the tomb?

Were you there when God raised Him from the dead?

Sometimes it causes me to tremble, tremble, tremble . . . .

Were you there when they crucified my LORD?

"That's My King!" In Galatians 1!

Jesus Saves And Speaks Through Paul
God's Grace Is Free To Those Who Call
Christ Died And Rose – Alive Stands Tall
From Evil Age Delivers All
Grace To You – Christ Took Our Fall
He Drank The Bitter, Curs-ed Gall
So Glory Be To God Our All!

That's my King!

Jesus' Grace Won't Let You Go
For Him Who Called Has Told You So
Christ Died And Rose His Love To Show
Now Grace To You Will Ever Flow
All Other gospels We'll Forgo
They Are No Gospel Only Woe
For Christ Alone Our All We Know
Cling To Your God And Don't Let Go!

That's my King! Do you know Him?!

God's Approval Jesus Sought
In Every Word And Deed And Thought
Please God Alone Is What He Taught
Man's Opinion's Good For Naught
For This He Died – Salvation Wrought
Through Resurrection Life He Brought
Freedom From All Sin He Fought
Now Please The LORD's Our Only Ought!

That's my King!

Jesus Is Our Perfect, Holy Gospel Revelation
He Took Away God's Wrath Through His Blood Propitiation
Then Rose Up From The Dead For Our Whole Justification
He's Reconciling People From All Tongues And Tribes And Nations
Even Made A Jewish Terrorist His Pristine New Creation
Now We Glorify Our God For His Great Renowned Salvation!

That's my King! That's my King!

"That's My King!" In Galatians 2!

Jesus Never Ran In Vain
Perfection Lived Without One Stain
Yet For Our Sins The Christ Was Slain
Then Rose Our Freedom To Attain
Now With All Power He Shall Reign
To Live Is Christ To Die Is Gain!

That's my King!

Jesus' Gospel Is What Paul Knew
Christ Died And Rose For Me And You
He Came To Save – Make All Things New
By Grace Through Faith Alone It's True
So Come And Trust The God-Man Jew
You’ll Love The Poor And Self Subdue!

That's my King! Do you know Him?!

Away From Christ God Turned His Face
He Stood Condemned And Took Our Place
He Died And Rose To Sin Erase
And Every Tribe And Tongue Embrace
He Died For All – We're All One Race
Step With The Gospel Stay On Pace
By Faith Alone We're Saved By Grace
And Now With Mercy God Will Chase!

That's my King!

Christ Earned By Works Our Justification
He Obeyed God's Law For Our Salvation
By God's Spirit Conquered Every Temptation
Then Died On That Cross For Our Propitiation
Absorbed God's Wrath And Our Damnation
Then Rose From The Grave Death's Cancellation
By Faith Alone In Christ Our Fixation
Forevermore There's No Condemnation
And We Do Good Works Out Of Pure Elation In The Incarnation
We Died To The Law Stipulation
We're The New Creation Who Received Imputation
And Live For God Through Our Sanctification
All For His Honor And Glorification!

That's my King! I wonder if you know Him today?!

Jesus Was Never A Servant Of Sin
The Greatest Man Who's Ever Been
Our LORD And God Who Came In Skin
He's Perfect, Pure Without Within
Yet Died For Our Sins So Life Could Begin
He Conquered The Grave Salvation To Win
We Died To The Law Now Christ We Are In
We Live To God And Enjoy His Grin!

That's my King!

Christ Loved Me! He's Crucified
"It Is Finished!" God Has Cried
Then Rose To Justify His Bride
In Him By Faith We've Also Died
And In His Righteousness We Hide
He Lives In Me And He's Our Guide
By Faith In Him We Shall Abide!

That's my King! That's my King!
