I can see him now
But I wish I couldn't
He's been beaten so badly
He's hardly recognizable to me
It's amazing to me that the same that used to be so happy
Is the same face that's staring back at me
He's only got one thing to say
That I did it all for you
Then it finally sunk in

That because of me
He died upon that tree
Because I sinned
He suffered
It was all my fault that he even got this far
Because of me
He was gonna die

I can hear him not
But I wish I couldn't
The crowds blocking my view
But I don't think I'd want to see this
The hammer's pounding the nails into his wrists
And the unbearable moans uttered by my savior
Then they raised him up for all to see
And all he said was 'God forgive them'
Then it finally sunk in

Because of us
He died upon that tree
Because we sinned
He suffered
It was all our fault that he even got this far
Because of us
He died

I believe him now
And I don't know how I ever doubted
His tomb is empty
Not a trace if him is to be found
He's telling me 'I told you so, and why didn't you trust me''
Then it finally sunk in

Because of love
He died upon that tree
Because He cared
He suffered
It was all his doing
That he even got this far
Because of love
He rose again
