A journey back (updated)

V1
Ever since the day You came
The veil is thorn, i can speak to God again
Ever since you came and died
A world so lost, now has hope again

So take me back
two thousand years
To stand at the feet...where the blood dripped
So take me to
Gethsemane
where You knelt and prayed, to wipe the tears of Your eyes

Pre-chorus
Tell me who is this man?
Tell me what has He done
To deserve such a death
It makes no sense at all
that a man who knew no sin
Is hanging on that cross

Chorus
And i know who nailed Your hands, It was me
And i know who gave those scars on Your back, It was me
And i know who had forsaken You, It was me

but i know who You were thinking off... It was me

V2
I can see the path You walked
I can see the ones You created, striking You down
O when i sin against You Lord
does the thorns grow deeper, do the scars not heal

Pre-chorus
It makes no sense at all
I'm suppose to be the one
I deserve this all
Is there any greater love?
that the one who takes my place
Is hanging on that cross

Chorus
And i know who nailed Your hands, It was me
And i know who gave those scars on Your back, It was me
And i know who had forsaken You, It was me
And i know who led You there

I know who broke Your heart, it was me
I know who placed that crown on Your head, it was me
I know who should have been in your place, it was me

yet i know why you did it all... It was me

Bridge

Tell me who is that man
that man hanging on the cross
Tell me what has he done?
I deserve to be the one
yet im the one who held his hand
and nailed it to the cross

The blood dripped away
The blood on my hands
What have i done?
This blood healed my sins
This blood paid the price
It carried all my shame


So take me back
to that day
O that precious day, that this sacrifice was made
Take me to
The nail scared hands
where You stood and wept, I was there...
