I've read the story
I've seen the movie
I give to charity

And tithe my ten percent
These I remember
But I so easily forget

All these years never heard it like this

It should've been me

It should've been us
Should've been hanging on a cross
All of this shame

All of these scars
Should've been stains that were never washed
Why do I hide

Why do you try
Over and over and over again
I guess it just eaves me saying thank God

It leaves me saying thank God, thank God
For the should've been


I live a good life
I love a great wife
Our kids are beautiful

We got friends down the street
If I'm so thankful
Why do I easily forget

That You died for all of this

When it should've been me

It should've been us
Should've been hanging on a cross
All of this shame

All of these scars
Should've been stains that were never washed
Why do I hide

Why do you try
Over and over and over again
I guess it just leaves me saying thank God

Leaves me saying thank God

For this heart you changed

Soul you raised
my God for taking my place
Yeah yeah


When it should've been me
Should've been us

Should've been hanging on a cross
All of this shame
All of these scars

Should've been stains that were never washed
It should've been me
It should've been us

Should've been hanging on a cross
All of this shame
All of these scars

Should've been stains that were never washed
Why do I hide
Why do you try

Over and over and over again
I guess it just leaves me saying thank God
Leaves me saying thank God

I guess it just leaves me saying thank God
For the should've been
For the should've been
