He Didn't Come Down Lyrics
Words and Music by: Al Harkins
Verse:
Often I stop to thing just where I'd be, Had Jesus come down from that cruel tree, There be no hope for man no peace could be found, Praise God I'm glad that He didn't come down
Chorus:
He didn't come down, Oh no He didn't come down, Ten thousand angels were camped all around, He could have called them to set Him free, But He stayed on the cross for you and for me
Verse:
Picture His mother there with tears in her eyes, As they mocked and scorned Him and pierced His side, They said "If thou be the King then come to the ground", Praise God I'm glad that He didn't come down
