[Verse 1]
G#m
The angels stood in awe
E
At the sight they saw
B F#/A#
The night you were betrayed
G#m
You could have saved Yourself
E
But you held back the heavens
B F#/A#
And let them carry You away
[Pre-Chorus 1]
E B G#m
You laid Your kingdom down
E B G#m F#/A#
They handed You a crown of thorns

You were torn

But cried let Your will be done

It wasn't nails that held You to the cross

It was love
It was Your love
G#m E
It was Your love
[Verse 2]
G#m
To think You chose this cup
E
Knowing all that was to come
B F#/A#
Oh the grace, that poured from You
G#m
Before Your final breath
E
Through Your tears you said
B F#/A#
Forgive them, for they know not what they do
[Pre-Chorus 2]
E B G#m
You looked up to the sky
E B G#m
Let out a final cry
E
It is done
G#m
hope has won
E F#/A#
Lord let Your kingdom come
[Chorus]

It wasn't nails that held You to the cross
