In only a moment, truth was seen
Reveal this mystery
The crown that showed no dignity he wore
And the king was placed for all the world

To show disgrace but only beauty flowed from this place
Would you take the place of this man
Would you take the nails from his hands
Would you take the place of this man
Would you take the nails from his hands

He held the weight of purity
The father would not see
The reasons had finally come to be to show

The depth of his grace
Flowed with every sin erased
He knew that this was why he came

Would you take the place of this man
Would you take the nails from his hands
Would you take the place of this man
Would you take the nails from his hands

And we just don't know
The blood and water flow
And in it all he showed
Just how much he cared
And the veil was torn
So we could have this open door
And all these things have finally been complete

Would you take the place of this man
Would you take the nails from his hands
Would you take the place of this man
Would you take the nails from his hands

From his hands
From his hands
From his hands
