Lyrics:
VERSE 1
It should have been me Lord
To die on that Cross
Oh I should have suffered eternal loss
You should have been worshiped
Instead You were slain
But Lord by Your suffering I’ve received
Eternal gain
CHORUS
Lord of glory bruised and broken
Such a wonderful love
You’ve shown to me
In my darkness Your mercy found me
And I will thank You Lord
Through all eternity for saving me
VERSE 2
It should have been me Lord
When God hid His face
But You were cut off Lord in deep disgrace
You should have been honored
But You took my shame
To clothe me in Your own righteousness
That I might reign
