the day the earth stood still

he was a king without a crown

they hanged him on his throne

and nailed him in the ground

the prophet

he upon the tree

sacrificed himself for the whole world to see

he bled for you

he bled for me

on that day

that day on calvary

it was a day

forget i never will

it was the day the earth stood still

it was for real

upon the hill

the savior gave his life

so you and i might live

he had to die

to pay redemption's price

it was the only day the angels ever cried

he died for you

he died for me

the lonely road on his way to calvary

it was the day

forget i never will

it was the day the earth stood still

then came sunday morning

the angels sang and the stone it rolled away

it was the day

forget i never will

it was the day the earth stood still

so wipe your weeping eyes

'cause he died for you and i

and he's coming back again

so every time we sin
