He Took My Place

Lyrics

There was a man more than a man Called Jesus Christ of Galilee There was a place where Jesus prayed A place that's called Gethsemane There on a hill called Calvary There stood a cross of agony Nailed to that cross where I should be He took my place at Calvary Now I'm a child of royalty And even angels envy me My Jesus cared so much for me He took my place at Calvary Christ Jesus lives He lives today From sin and debt He set me free Now hand in hand each place I go My Jesus Christ He walks with me And when I ask how could it be That Jesus cared so much for me The answer comes so tenderly He took my place at Calvary Now I'm a child of royalty And even angels envy me My Jesus cared so much for me He took my place at Calvary And now my Lord the son of God I share with everyone I see I give my best my all to Him Because He gives so much to me Now if His own you'll wanna be Come join His royal family Let your heart sing joyfully He took my place at Calvary Now I'm a child of royalty And even angels envy me My Jesus cared so much for me He took my place at Calvary
