Sandi Patty Album: Find It On the Wings Track: Where the Nails Were
Where the Nails Were Lyrics
"Father forgive them," I heard you faintly say Still in my heart I feel so guilty I know the truth is The debt was mine to pay How could it be right that it happened this way A fallen and sinful life I was leading Now why is your body torn and bleeding
Chorus: It should've been my hands where the nails were. It should've been It should've been my feet where the nails were. It should've been It should've been my side that was opened My heart that was broken It should've been my hands It should've been my feet Where the nails were
At times I am tempted to overlook your grace Thinking I'm worth the love You've given I walk like I'm earning the right to run the race Somehow forgetting You died in my place Still isn't long before I've stumbled One look at the cross and I am humbled
Chorus: It should've been my hands, where the nails were. It should've been It should've been my feet, where the nails were. It should've been It should've been my side that was opened My heart that was broken But it was your hands Yes it was your feet It was your blessed hands It was your precious feet It should've been my hands It should've been my feet Where the nails were
