Had It Not Been
by Allison Durham Speer

Album: This Old House

Just suppose God searched through all of Heaven
He couldn't find one willing to be
The supreme sacrifice that was needed
That would buy eternal life for you and me

Chorus
Oh had it not been
For a place called Mount Calvary
Had it not been for the old rugged cross
Had it not been for a man called Jesus
Then forever my soul would be lost

But I'm so glad He was willing to drink His bitter cup
Although He prayed, Father let it pass from me
Oh I'm so glad He didn't call heaven's angels
From my hands pull the nails that torment me

Repeat chorus

Then forever my soul would be lost
