Lyrics
Verse 1
Storm clouds gather high above the angry shouting crowd
Stones are jagged cutting deep against a frame so bowed
I watched Him stumble, watched Him rise,
Mercy burning in His eyes.
They cursed the Man who healed their pain...
Still He carried all our shame.
Pre-Chorus
Every step He could've turned away
Every breath He chose to stay
Chorus
I saw the King walk by with a cross upon His back
He could have called the thunder down
Instead He wore that painful crown
Every drop was calling out my name
Paid the debt for every ounce of shame
Buying back the soul I could not reclaim
Verse 2
The iron hammer ring reflects against the heavy sky
Mothers weep in silence as the soldiers watch Him die
Earth stands frozen while the heavens weep
Keeping promises He meant to keep
Pre-Chorus
Darkness fell at midday's blinding light
Mercy kept His spirit burning bright
Chorus
I saw the King walk by with a cross upon His back
He could have called the thunder down
Instead He wore that painful crown
Every drop was calling out my name
Paid the debt for every ounce of shame
Buying back the soul I could not reclaim
Bridge
Then the sky broke open with the final crashing cry
The curtain split wide while the earth began to sigh
Death believed that it had won the day
But mercy rolled that massive stone away
The grave could never hold Him in the ground
Victory is the only hollow sound
Chorus
I saw the King walk by with a cross upon His back
He could have called the thunder down
Instead He wore that painful crown
Every drop was calling out my name
Paid the debt for every ounce of shame
Buying back the soul I could not reclaim
