Nails

Where was the army of angels
When the crowd yelled out "Crucify"?
And how could a last breath be taken
By the One whose breath becomes life?

All my guilt, all my shame
The nails that pierced You bore my name
The Father's face turned away
Nothing made sense that day

But now, I see
It was Your love for me
Holding You on that tree
It wasn't the nails

You chose the death of a sinner
To give me the life of a saint
And You lеft the heights of the Hеavens
To show me the depths of Your grace

You took my guilt, You took my shame
Now resurrection bares my name
By Your blood, I've been saved (I've been saved)
Nothing could stand in Your way

Now, I see
It was Your love for me
Holding You on that tree
It wasn't the nails (Oh-oh-oh-oh)
'Cause with one word, You could've stopped the hurt
But it was Your love, Your grace, Your mercy
Holding You there
It wasn't the nails
(Oh-oh-oh-oh) It wasn't the nails

No one could take what You chose to give
You gave Your life to save my soul
Freely, You died, so I could live
Jesus, You wanted me to know
It wasn't the nails (It was Your love, Your grace, Your mercy)
(Holding You there)

Oh, now, I see (Now I see)
It was Your love for me (Your love for me)
Holding You on that tree
It wasn't the nails (Oh-oh-oh-oh)
'Cause with one word (With just one word)
You could've stopped the hurt (Stopped all the hurt)
But it was Your love, Your grace, Your mercy
Holding You there
It was always Your love, Your Grace, Your mercy
Nothing compares
It wasn't the nails
[Outro]
(Oh-oh-oh-oh) It wasn't the nails
No! (No!)
No! (No!)
It wasn't the nails
