Should Be Me

Oh God Is that your Son But what had He done He did nothing wrong But God I’ve cheated and stolen I’ve been hurt and I’m broken Look what I’ve done It should be me, not the Son It should be me, not the Son It should be me, not the Son It should be me, not the Son I wish I could know why they’re whipping your flesh I wish I could know why they’re beating your head I wish I could know why they’re wanting you dead But I don’t I just don’t I wish I could know how they’re jeering at you As the spit from their mouths hits the blood smeared on you If only they knew you were good through and through But they don’t Oh they don’t I wish I could carry that cross on your back I wish I could hold all the burdens you have I wish I could wipe all the tears from your eyes But I can’t Oh I can’t It should be me, not the Son It should be me, not the Son It should be me, not the Son It should be me, not the Son Jesus
