In Your Shoes

If I tried to walk a mile in your shoes
I doubt I'd ever understand you
Or the reason why you didn't change your mind
When you knew the sacrifice you had to make

But before the mountains were born
You knew there would come a day
The Son of man
Would carry His cross and walk up Calvary
And all the punishment of sin would be upon you
And God would turn His face

But you took the nails
You gave your life to ransom me
But it wasn't nails
That kept you on the tree
You could have called a thousand angels
To come set you free
But your love kept you on the tree

If I were you I would have walked away
But the very thought of me made you stay
And you came to earth as a mighty king
But you chose to live a life among the weak

And before the mountains were born
You knew there would come a day
The Son of man
Would carry His cross and walk up Calvary
And all the punishment of sin would be upon you
And God would turn His face

But you took the nails
You gave your life to ransom me
But it wasn't nails
That kept you on the tree
You could have called a thousand angels
To come set you free
But your love kept you on the tree

If I tried to walk a mile in your shoes
I doubt I'd ever understand You
