about

The meter of these lyrics fit perfectly into the blues genre. And what is a more compelling revelation of the truth than to recognize that it was our complicity, our mocking, and our sin, that put Him on that awful cross. Thank God He said, "Father forgive them, they know not what they do."

lyrics

Voices Rude

Verse 1
Twas I that shed the sacred blood
I nailed Him to the tree
I crucified the Christ of God
I joined the mockery
Of all that shouting multitude
I feel that I am one
And in that din of voices rude
I recognize my own

Verse 2
Around the cross the throng I see
Who mocked the Savior's groan
Yet still my voice it seems to be
As if I mocked alone
How clearly now I see my sin
In His all forgiving face
Who bore my insults silently
While suffering in my place
