It Was Love Songtext
von Abandon

The angle stood in awe
at the sight they saw
The night you were betrayed
You could have saved yourself
But You held back the Heavens
And let them carry You away

You laid Your kingdom down, 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 love, it was Your love
You took our place carried our guilt and shame
all for us, all for us, all for us.
It wasn't nails that held you, it was love.


To think You chose this cup
knowing all that was to come
Oh the grace that poured from You
before Your final breath, through Your tears You said
"Forgive them, for they know not what they do."
You looked up to the sky, let out a final cry
It is done!
Hope has won!
Lord let Your kingdom come!

It wasn′t nails that held You to the cross, it was love, it was love, it was Your love
You took our place carried our guilt and shame
all for us, all for us, all for us.
It wasn't nails that held you, it was love.
