Lyrics

Based on Matthew 20:28 It's such a paradox It's such a mystery Why a King would leave His throne To save humanity They could not have known When they mocked Him in disgrace They could not have known When they spit upon His face The Rose of Sharon Wore a crown of thorns that day The carpenter had a nail Right through His hands The Master of the earth Became a servant of no worth And paid a King's ransom for my soul He paid a King's ransom for my soul Creator of the earth Name above all names Some just stood in unbelief When listening to His claims They could not have known When they hit Him with their fists They could not have known When they nailed his feet and wrists The Rose of Sharon Wore a crown of thorns that day The carpenter had a nail Right through His hands The Master of the earth Became a servant of no worth And paid a King's ransom for my soul He paid a King's ransom for my soul The ransom that He paid Was the sacrifice He made The life of a King in place of me The shame that He bore For the rich and for the poor Changed His crown of thorns into glory The Master of the earth Became a servant of no worth And paid a King's ransom for my soul He paid a King's ransom for my soul
