Have faith in God –
What deeper, strong foundation!
Have faith in God –
The Lord of all creation;
Have faith in God –
And His so great salvation.
Have faith, dear friend, in God.

Were You There?

Negro Spiritual

    Now it was the third hour, and they crucified Him. Mark 15:25.

Were you there when they crucified my Lord?
Were you there when they crucified my Lord?
Oh! Sometimes it causes me to tremble, tremble, tremble.
Were you there when they crucified my Lord?

Were you there when they nailed Him to the tree?
Were you there when they nailed Him to the tree?
Oh! Sometimes it causes me to tremble, tremble, tremble.
Were you there when they nailed Him to the tree?

Were you there when they laid Him in the tomb?
Were you there when they laid Him in the tomb?
Oh! Sometimes it causes me to tremble, tremble, tremble.
Were you there when they laid Him in the tomb?
