297   NAILED TO THE CROSS




[V1]


There was one who was willing to die in my stead,
That a soul so unworthy might live,
And the path to the cross, He was willing to tread,
All the sins of my life to forgive.

[C]
They are nailed to the cross,
They are nailed to the cross,
O how mush He was willing to bear!
With what anguish and loss,
Jesus went to the cross!
But He carried my sins with Him there.

[V2]
He is tender and loving and patient with me,
While He cleanses my heart of its dross,
But “there’s no condemnation;” I know I am free,
For my sins are all nailed to the cross.

[C]
They are nailed to the cross,
They are nailed to the cross,
O how mush He was willing to bear!
With what anguish and loss,
Jesus went to the cross!
But He carried my sins with Him there.

[V3]
I will cling to my Saviour and never depart,
I will joyfully journey each day,
With a song on my lips and a song in my heart,
That my sins have been taken away.

[C]
They are nailed to the cross,
They are nailed to the cross,
O how mush He was willing to bear!
With what anguish and loss,
Jesus went to the cross!
But He carried my sins with Him there.
