Were You There? | Songs and Everlasting Joy 

It would help each of us to take the questions in this old song seriously. Can you imagine what it would have been like to have been there? When they crucified Him? Nailed Him to the tree? Pierced Him in the side? What would it have felt like? What side would we have been on? What about when nature reacted to their Creator being treated that way? The sun refused to shine. There was an earthquake. Darkness enveloped the whole land. What about when they laid Him in the tomb? Such a final act. Or was it?
What would it have been like when He rose up from the dead? Glory, glory, glory!
And all of this was for you.
