“Would you take the nails into your hands” (Song)

“Would you take the nails into your hands”

O’ Jesus O’ Jesus you mean the world to me

You came to die on Calvary that I would be set free

God sent His precious Son to earth before it was too late

You came to shed your blood dear lord your love for us so great

Chorus

Would you put yourself upon that cross for all the world to see?

To take the pain for all their sin for all humanity

Would you take the nails into your hands?

A sword thrust in your side

And shed your blood on Calvary where the saviour bled and died

O’ Jesus O’ Jesus you left your Heavenly throne

You came as a stranger Lord and you were all alone

You were born of a virgin Lord and this we know is true

The one and only sacrifice He was sent for me and you

Chorus

Would I put myself upon that cross for all the world to see?

Would I take their pain and all their sin like Jesus did for me?

Would I take the nails into my hands a sword thrust in my side?

And shed my blood on Calvary where my saviour bled and died

(Main chorus)

Would you put yourself upon that cross for all the world to see?

To take the pain for all their sin for all humanity

Would you take the nails into your hands?

A sword thrust in your side

And shed your blood on Calvary where the saviour bled and died
