lyrics

Were you there when they crucified my Lord?
Were you there when they crucified my Lord?
Oh sometimes it makes me tremble, tremble, tremble
Were you there when they crucified my Lord?

Were you there when they nailed Him to a Tree?
Oh were you there when they nailed Him to a Tree?
Oh sometimes it makes me tremble, tremble, tremble
Were you there when they nailed Him to a Tree?

Were you there when they laid Him in the tomb?
But were you there when the stone was rolled away?
And the Angels asked "why look for Him there?"
He's alive! He's risen from the dead!
He's alive! He's risen from the dead!
