WHEN HE WAS ON THE CROSS
Words & Music by Ronald Payne & Ronnie Hinson
Sung by John Starnes
He walked the streets to Calvary,
The rugged cross he bore;
The crowd desired to watch this man,
They'd heard him preach before;
I know I'll never be worthy,
Such love I'd never find;
For when he was on the cross,
I was on his mind.
The look of love was on his face,
The thorns on his head;
The blood that changed his scarlet robe,
Stained it crimson red;
And though his eyes were on the crowd that day,
Yet he looked ahead in time;
When he was on the cross,
I was on his mind.
He knew me, yet he loved me,
He whose glory makes
The Heavens shine;
Unworthy of such mercy,
When he was on the cross,
I was on his mind.
When he was on the cross,
I was on his mind.
Noone ever cared for me like Jesus,
There's no other friend so kind as he;
Noone else could take my sin,
And darkness from me;
Oh, how much he cares for me.
When he was on the cross,
When he was on the cross,
I was on his mind.
