Would you take the place of this man?


From LYRICSMODE.COM lyrics archive
Lyrics Jeremy Camp lyrics - This Man lyrics

I left work and hour late today after a tiring day - mentally, physically, and yes, emotionally. I received news from a co-worker that hospice has been called in for her mom. Busy, busy, busy . . . with moments of sadness creeping in.

This beautiful song by Jeremy Camp was playing on the radio when I got in my car.

Not feeling as bad now . . .

In only moment truth was seen,
Revealed this mystery,
The crown that showed no dignity,
He wore.
And the king, was placed,
For all the world to show disgrace,
But only beauty flowed from this place.

Would you take the place of this man
Would you take the nails from his hands
Would you take the place of this man
Would you take the nails from his hands

He held the weight of impurity,
The father would not see,
The reasons had finally come to be to show.
The depth, of his grace,
Flowed with every sin erased,
He knew, that this was why he came.

Would you take the place of this man
Would you take the nails from his hands
Would you take the place of this man
Would you take the nails from his hands

And we just don't know,
The blood and water flowed,
And in it all he shows,
Just how much he cares.
And the veil, was torn,
So we could have this open door,
And all these things, have finally been complete.

Would you take the place of this man
Would you take the nails from his hands
Would you take the place of this man
Would you take the nails from his hands
