For Today - Crown Of Thorns lyrics

We crowned Him with a crown of thorns
We crowned Him with a crown of thorns


This is the end of our life
That's been burdened for all that comes (for all that comes)
The suffering manifest glory has come with the fullness of God
King of Kings
Beaten and broken down
Why would He live like a servant?
King of Kings
They said there's no way down
Why should He die like a slave?

The throne will be above, the meek will inherit the earth
The less will be first to inherit the earth
I know down is the way up, so Master show me how to serve
The less will be first to inherit the earth
The less will be first to inherit the earth

It should have been me
With the nails through my hands and feet
Facing the wrath of God
It should have been me
Left to pay for my sin forsaken
But in the blood I stand
It should have been me

Born to die
He bore the fire of God's holy wrath on His shoulders
Born to die
I watched Him pour out His life as a ransom for all

And as He carried His cross on His back,
Beaten and bloody, yeah I saw myself there too.
Cause I've been broken by a world that hates me,
But I'm not alone anymore.
No one can take His life, He laid it down for me.
That twisted wreath of thorns, yeah He took that crown for me.
Then after three days out of the ground for me,
He overcame it all.
Now I live to serve Him.
With stripes on His back betrayed by the ones He loved so perfectly.
We spit in His face and we crowned Him…

We crowned Him with a crown of thorns
We crowned Him with a crown of thorns
We crowned Him with a crown of thorns
We crowned Him with a crown of thorns
