You Thought of Us Songtext

von Kyle Matthews

The look on Judas' face
Torches set ablaze
Weapons drawn in hate
The chill of night
Friends who fled in fear
The sound of Peter's tears
The way the people cheered "crucify"
A Nightmare coming true before your eyes
What was it that was going through your mind?

You thought of us
Every one of us
And all your love for us caused you to stay
You could have spared your life and still had paradise
But even when the pain we put you through became too much
You thought of us

The hands that stripped you bare
The eyes that mocked and stared
The laughter everywhere
Each stripe they made
The needles running red
The nails, the five that bled
The gaping door of death
We often take
You raged against the silence in the sky
But when you asked for God to tell you why

You thought of us
Every one of us
And all your love for us caused you to stay
You could have spared your life and still had paradise
But even when the pain we put you through became too much
You thought of us

And on that Sunday bright
So full of love and life
With angels left and right
To take you home
First, you had to find someone to share the joy in you
And who on earth should be the first to hear the news?

You thought of us
Every one of us
And all your love for us caused you to stay
We were the very ones who turned away your love
But even when the pain we put you through became too much
You thought of us
