I Was The Nails
by David & The Giants

Album: Giant Hits

If I were the ground where Jesus
Knelt down to pray
I would have told Him I loved Him
In so many ways
I would have liked to have been the flower
That drank of His tears
I would have reached up to touch Him
And comfort Him there

But I was the cup He was to drink of
I was the hurt He felt inside
And I was the nails that held Him there
And He was the answers to my prayers

I would have liked to have been the purple robe
They made my Jesus wear
I would have wrapped myself around Him
And showed Him I care
And if I was a robin
Looking down from the tree
I would have sung Him a love song
"How Could This Be"

But I was the pain upon His back
And I was the thorns in His crown
And I was the nails that held Him there
And He was the answers to my prayers

And if I was the sun
I too would have hid my face
And if I was the earth
I'd tremble and shake
And if I were the clouds
I would thunder and cry
Oh, but I was the spear
That pierced His side

And I was the pain upon His back
And I was the thorns in His crown
And I was the nails that held Him there
And He was the answers to my prayers
He was the answers to my prayers
He was the answers to my prayers
