It wasn’t the nails
That held him there
It was his unconditional love
That kept him there
He was hung high
And stretched wide
And he stayed there
Until he died
He paid the price
For you and me
Gave the ultimate Sacrifice
So we can be free
He was hung on a cross
For people to mock and stare
It wasn’t the nails
That held him there
Nailed to the wood
By his hands and feet
It looked like his defeat
But it was his victory
Truly we must know
As Christians we must tell
The reason he stayed on the cross
It wasn’t the nails
