He Didn't When He Could've Passed By
by Greater Vision

Album: The Only Way

2000 years ago the Lord came down to seek the lost
Over 30 years on a lonely road he was focused on the cross
Still the Master had compassion every time he heard a cry
Something deep inside Him would not let Him walk on by

Oh he could have passed by the little boy who had died
Left him laying in the way
Oh he would have passed by that old man who was blind
Saying maybe on another day
Oh He could have walked on when all hope was gone
Standing over Lazarus' grave
But I'm glad that He didn't and He heard their cry
No He didn't when he could've passed by

With every step He took the cross was heavy on His mind
He could have said "I'm sorry, but I just don't have the time"
Yet He laid aside His burden and he stopped to lend a hand
He showed us what's important is the love for every man

Oh he could have passed by the little boy who had died
Left him laying in the way
Oh he would have passed by that old man who was blind
Saying maybe on another day
Oh He could have walked on when all hope was gone
Standing over Lazarus' grave
But I'm glad that He didn't and He heard their cry
No He didn't when he could've passed by

On day I found myself in sin, laying by the road
Everyone who'd called me friend had left me there alone
Then I cried out to Jesus and He did not ask me why
He reached down and rescued me, He did not pass me by

Oh he could have passed by the little boy who had died
Left him laying in the way
Oh he would have passed by that old man who was blind
Saying maybe on another day
Oh He could have walked on when all hope was gone
Standing over Lazarus' grave
But I'm glad that He didn't and He heard their cry
No He didn't when he could've passed by

Oh he could have passed by the little boy who had died
Left him laying in the way
Oh he would have passed by that old man who was blind
Saying maybe on another day
Oh He could have walked on when all hope was gone
Laying there in my mistakes
But I'm glad that He didn't and He heard my cry
No He didn't when he could've passed by

Oh He could have walked on when all hope was gone
Laying there in my mistakes
Oh He could've and He should've when He heard my cry
But He didn't when he could've passed by
