I'm Guilty

I solemnly swear to tell the truth

The whole truth and nothing but the truth now so help me God

What I testify and what I'm speaking of is an eye witness account

Of an experience of a kind of love

I confess now to what I was

I was guilty of making the very Son of God now shed his blood

And I was guilty of the reason now why he was hung

And I'm guilty for every evil thing now that I've done

And I'm guilty for it all I can't blame no one

I'm filthy with what caused the death of the Son

It kills me to think I was the one who shed his blood

I still think of the way he died now and how it was

It fills me with pain inside I feel like throwing up

I can't escape I can't lie I didn't make it up

I was the only one who took the life of the Holy One

This is the first time I've confessed now to what I've done

I'm guilty

Yeah that's right I did it right out in the open for all to see

And I never hid it I got to admit it

They too the whip ripped his back wide open and split it

I heard him cry every time they pulled it back and hit it

I wondered why he was silent now I didn't get it

I watched him die while he cried out now it is finished

Thought nobody would find out the crime that I've committed

I tried to hide out it's too late that's right I did this

It's my time now my own eyes have been a witness

To my crime now I'm speechless and I'm defenseless

Can anybody find out it's obvious that this is

My final time now I've finally come to my senses

I'm a climb down an take whatever I'm sentenced

I know why now there's no way now that I could miss this

I opened my eyes now I see him just for who he is this

My guilt is mine now, it's so obvious that I'm guilty

Chorus

I'm just another person I'm just another man

I was the one that hurt him I finally understand

Now I know for certain I case the nails to land

That left him dead and murdered pierced in feet and hands

So now you've heard it I testified and I took the stand

No other way I could word it this is my confession and

I never lied or purged I told just the best I can

But I was the one that cursed him I was the trigger man

The page is turning and I've now just confessed to this

I didn't kill Christ but it was just my sin that did

Now I've confessed the crime I don't deserve to live

I'm ready to do my time all that I can say is this...

Chorus
