Just a thief nobody cares about.
The kind that would run up in your house
Steal your jewels and couch.
Been on the run for so long but they caught me now,
They hung me on this cross I'm on and I see the crowd.
But next to me is someone who I've heard about,
They say he heals the blind and lame but
I got my doubts.
So what's his name? I can't remember.
someone screamed it out
Said it was Jesus,
but this man didn't make a sound.
He hung there breathing with the blood
running down his mouth.
He'd been beaten a crown of thorns now
was on his brow.
See what I've done is just the
reason why I'm hanging now,
But this man is innocent and I can see it now.
I said "Jesus, are you listening, do you hear me now,
Remember me just on the day you
bring your kingdom down,
I want to change my ways I really want
your freedom now!"
He took my sin away and this is why I say it loud
He turned his head and said
"today you're gonna be with me...
Cause very soon I'll be dead but I'ma set you free,
Cuz every drop that I've bled is so that you would see,
That it was shed for you to be with me eternally."
The other thief he just laughed at what he said to me,
Said "you ain't coming back you're
nothing what you claim to be!!"
"If you was king then why'd they hang you next to me??"
"See what I think is you're a liar and it's plain to see!!"
But Jesus was silent, and soon time began to pass...
He cried "It is finished!"
And went and breathed his last.
He died. The sky was rumbling and started turning black.
But I knew he'd come again because I knew the facts,
My time to die is coming soon and it's coming fast,
It's hard to breathe, I'm trying to, I began to gasp.
I can't deny what is true cause it's all I have,
Now I know that paradise is where I'm heading at.
I had a debt I could not pay
His love broke through took it away..
Please remember me Lord when you come again
Time is passing by my life is coming to the end
I'm about to die it's time so please let me in
Please remember me Lord when you come again...
