Inspirational Lyrics
I listen to a lot of music, but rarely does it inspire me or capture my core like this song from Jeremy Camp. This came out around 2004, but the quality lyrics just capture the emotion, pain and burden that Christ bore for us. An amazing set of lyrics from a young composer.
This Man
In only a moment truth was seen
Revealed this mystery
The crown that showed no dignity he wore
And the king was placed for all the world to show disgrace
But only beauty flowed from this place
Would you take the place of this man
Would you take the nails from his hands
Would you take the place of this man
Would you take the nails from his hands
He held the weight of impurity
The Father would not see
The reasons had finally come to be to show
The depth of His grace flowed with every sin erased
He knew that this was why he came
Would you take the place of this man
Would you take the nails from his hands
Would you take the place of this man
Would you take the nails from his hands
And we just don’t know
The blood and water flowed
And in it all He shows
Just how much He cares
And the veil was torn
So we could have this open door
And all these things have finally been complete
Would you take the place of this man
Would you take the nails from his hands
Would you take the place of this man
Would you take the nails from his hands,
From his hands, from his hands, from his hands
Would you take the place of this man
Would you take the nails from his hands
Would you take the place of this man
Would you take the nails from his hands.
