This week our featured song on KHYM is Laura Kaczor's "The Nails!" We have the lyrics and music video for this amazing song here!
LYRICS:
I've heard the story, so many times, so many times
I'd forgotten
I sing a song of the old rugged cross
And of his only Son begotten
But I forget how hard the nails came down!
And that his blood flowed red from that thorny crown
And it's a mystery, a mystery indeed
That you chose to become humanity
No, there's nothing that you didn't feel -
the weight of sin upon that cross,
separation, pain and loss
And I forget how hard the nails came down
And that your blood flowed red from your beaten brow
And I forget about the stripes upon your back
The mocking crowds and the piercing attacks
I've heard the story so many times, so many times
I'd forgotten
I sing the song of the old rugged cross
And of his only son begotten
But I forget how hard the nails came down
The blood stained robe and that thorny crown
And I forget how hard the nails came down
And that your blood flowed red from you beaten brow
For me
For me
For me
For me
For me
For me
Help me to see your sacrifice of greatest price
that you paid for me
to carry all your children home to eternity
I've heard the story so many times, so many times
I'd forgotten
