I hope you'll enjoy this song.
It was written by one of the finest songwriters it's ever been our pleasure to know, Mr.
Ronnie Henson.
I'm sure a lot of you are familiar with his songs.
We've recorded a lot of them and so has a lot of other people.
In fact, on this particular song, on the recording, we invited Brother Ronnie as a guest to do the second verse.
And I think he's around here today and we're going to ask him to join us today.

Listen as they sing, the cross in [D#m] the middle should have been mine.
[G#]
[C#] There is [F#] no sign of [C#]
crosses, [F#] but history [G#] records [C#] there were three.
Two [D#m] stood [G#]
because [C#] of men's [A#m] broken laws, [D#] but an oldie stood [G#] there for me.
I [C#]
[F#] didn't know Peter [C#] or Judas, but I've known the [F] shame [F#] of their crimes.

die in [F#] my [A#m] stead.

[A]
[D] Never [G] deserve [D]
mercy, [G] for there it [A] is so [D] much grace.
And [G] this [A] unworthy man just [D] can't [Bm] understand [E] why that man alone took my rightful [A] place.
[D] And if you [G] ever stop [D] at Calvary, the blood isn't all that [G] you'll find.
For you'll [A] feel it too, for [D] I feel like [G] I do.
[Em] That old cross in the middle should [A]
have [D] been mine.
[Em] [D]
[G] I never, the hammer [D]
never [A] fell [D] the nails.
[F#] [G] I never [A] saw [D] with the [Bm] angry law, [A] her [E] saddest of [A] prisoners shed.
And [D] they [G] never knew [D] this old sinner, cause I was some other place [G] and time.
The choice was [A] all his, but [D] the truth [G] was me.
[Em] The cross in the middle should [A] [Am] have [D] been mine.
