There was one

We sang a song today.

“There was one who was willing to die for my sins
that a soul so unworthy might live.
And the path to the cross he was willing to tread
all the sins of my life to forgive.

They are nailed to the cross,
They are nailed to the cross,
O how much He was willing to bear!
With what anguish and loss Jesus went to the cross!
But He carried my sins with Him there.”

To hear the music of the song go to cyber hymnal.

I used to sing this in Switzerland, but I didn’t sing it this way, even though that’s the way I grew up singing it. While I was in Europe, a difficult time for me, I sang it this way.

“There was one who was willing to die for my sins.
There was one who was willing to die.
There was one who was willing.
There was one.
There was.
There was one who willing to die.”

It means a lot to me because it was my “focal point” when things were bad. If he could do that, I could bear this.
