I saw one hanging on a tree in agony and blood,

That looked on me and gladly took my place.
verse 2
Dm Bb C
My conscience felt and owned the guilt and plunged me in despair
Dm Gm7 Am7

But with a second look He said, I freely all forgive

This blood is for your ransom paid.

I died that you might live

That I should such a life destroy Yet live by Him I killed.
