So easy to forget, honestly

So easy to forget this was for me

I was on His mind when I didn't have to be

This was Someone with time for better things



Before my eyes the quiet battleground

Used to think my soul's salvation was all I needed for a rout

It was as easy as a prayer, as hard as being sincere

I've got Heaven coming but it took hell to get here



Hanging on the tree--there He is

Nailed to the tree--there He is

Hanging on the tree--there He is

Nailed to the tree



How'd you feel if that was your mother

How'd you feel if that was your father

His mind on you in the midst of His shame

Like a lover who only calls your name



A love such as this I can't imagine

Sometimes I miss the point even after it's spelled out to me

I'll carry on with my poor imitation

Of that walk between death and victory



Hanging on the tree--there He is

Nailed to the tree--there He is

Hanging on the tree--there He is

Nailed to the tree--there He is

Hanging on the tree--there He is

Nailed to the tree--there He is

Hanging on the tree--there He is

Nailed to the tree--there He is
