Smoking Popes - When He Was on the Cross lyrics

There's no one great among us

We're nothing on our own

We make mistakes and often slip

Just common flesh and bone

Someday I'll prove just what I say

I'm of a special kind

For when he was on the cross

I was on his mind

(chorus)

He knew me

Yet he loved me

He whose glory makes the heavens shine

I'm not worthy of such mercy

But when he was on the cross

I was on his mind

A look of love was on his face

The thorns upon on his head

The blood was on that scarlet robe

Stained it crimson red

Though his eyes were on the crowd that day

He looked ahead in time

And when he was on the cross

You and I were on his mind

(chorus)

When he was on the cross

You and I were on his mind
