Well, it was many years ago in the time of the Bible
That they took him up to Calvary (Up to Calvary)
They could have let Him go, but instead they chose Barabus
Just to set another criminal free (Just to set him free)
When they crucified the ever-loving, caring Master
With compassion flowing from his eyes
Well, he said to a thief who was begging him for mercy that
"Today you'll live in paradise."
Mmm, and I'm saved (I'm saved)
I'm saved like the criminal on the cross
Praise God I'm saved (I'm saved)
I'm saved no more to suffer loss
Well, He said I'd live in Paradise and he's taken care of the cost
Hallelujah! I'm saved (I'm saved)
I'm saved like the criminal on the cross
Well, on the Judgement Day when all the people gather 'round Him
And they wait to hear what He will declare (What He will declare)
There will never ever be more intense anticipation
That has ever happened anywhere (Anywhere)
When they call my name to defend my reputation
There is only one thing I can say
"I'm a wretch, I'm a worm, I'm a no good sinner."
But he said, "I'll save you anyway."
