And they crucified Him.
I saw them nail Him to a cross
With nails so long and cruel;
But Jesus prayed, “Father, forgive;
They know not what they do.”
I saw the sun grow dark, and then
My Savior cried again.
I know that in those long dark hours
He suffered for my sin.
The day my Savior died, heaven’s door was opened wide.
Now I can go inside, because my Savior died.
