They bound the hands of Jesus
In the garden where He prayed
They led Him through the streets in shame
They spat upon the Savior
So pure and free from sin
They said, “crucify Him, He’s to blame”
He could have called
Ten thousand angels
To destroy the world
Oh, and set Him free
He could have called
Ten thousand angels
But He died alone
For you and for me
Upon His precious head
They placed a crown of thorns
They laughed and said “behold the King”
They stroke Him and they cursed Him
And mocked His holy name
All along he suffered everything
He could have called
Ten thousand angels
To destroy the world
Oh, and set Him free
He could have called
Ten thousand angels
But He died alone
For you and for me
To the howling mob, he yielded
He did not for mercy cry
The cross of shame, He took alone
And when He cried, “it’s finished”
He gave Himself to die
Salvation’s wondrous plan was done
He could have called
Ten thousand angels
To destroy the world
Oh, and set Him free
He could have called
Ten thousand angels
To destroy the world
Oh, and set Him free
He could have called
Ten thousand angels
But He died alone
For you and for me
