We're You There When They Crucified My Lord (A Good Friday Hymn)

The Crucifixion by Martin Bernat (San Diego Art Museum)


As this is Good Friday, I would like to share this version of a well-known hymn often sung on this day. May it serve as an aid to reflect on the meaning of this moment in our Holy Week Journey.

 
 


1 Were you there when they crucified my Lord? 
Were you there when they crucified my Lord? 
Oh, sometimes it causes me to tremble, tremble, tremble. 
Were you there when they crucified my Lord?

2 Were you there when they nailed him to the tree? 
Were you there when they nailed him to the tree? 
Oh, sometimes it causes me to tremble, tremble, tremble. 
Were you there when they nailed him to the tree? 

 3 Were you there when they laid him in the tomb? 
Were you there when they laid him in the tomb? 
Oh, sometimes it causes me to tremble, tremble, tremble. 
Were you there when they laid him in the tomb? 

4 Were you there when God raised him from the tomb? 
Were you there when God raised him from the tomb? 
Oh, sometimes it causes me to tremble, tremble, tremble. 
Were you there when God raised him from the tomb?
