1 When I think how they crucified my Lord,
When I think how they crucified my Lord,
Oh, sometimes it causes me to tremble, tremble,
When I think how they crucified my Lord.

2 When I think how they nailed him to the tree,

4 When I think of the nail-prints in his hands.

5 When I think how they struck him in the face.

6 When I think how he washed away my sins.
