The Day The Earth Stood Still

I stood there with the others to watch and see
The man who hung on the cross for me
He endured great pain to complete His father's will
It happened the day the earth stood still

Yes, I was there, but all the details I can’t really remember
I relived a part everyday of my life, when I was still a sinner
I began to realize that whenever I made a choice to sin
I put a stripe on His back, and nailed Him to a cross again

I could never thank him enough, for what He did for me
What do you say to a man who died, so that you might be free
The sun refused to shine while He hung there on that hill
I didn’t know that He was giving His life just so I might live

He proved to me on that day
He loves me more than anyone ever will
That’s why I could never forget
The day the earth stood still
