Lyrics

Was That For Me?
words & music copyright 2004 Kyle D. Walker

Now I wasn't there in the garden
So I didn't get the chance to see
How red drops of blood could fall
Was that for me?
And I didn't see when they took you
Down where the bad people bleed
And laid your body open
Was that for me?
Was that for me?
Was that for me?
You never pulled your hand away at all
I wasn't in the crowd that lined the way
To view the latest thief
Driven out the gate to die
I cannot find the words
Was that for me?
Was that for me?
Was that for me?
You never pulled your hand away at all
I figured it was part of the plan
That you would face the choice
As God, not man
But I was wrong
This all took place so long ago
It seems I shouldn't care
About your body hanging there
On that tree
But you were there in the garden
And you didn't have to be
And when your cross rose in the air
It wasn't nails that held you there
But love for me
