Had It Not Been

     G           C                
Just suppose God searched through 
G
heaven
             G                   D
And couldn't find one willing to be
    G            C           
The supreme sacrifice that was 
  G
needed
        G           D             
Just to buy eternal life for you 
   G
and me


Continues after the ad
Chorus
       C                           
Had it not been for a place called 
   G
Mount Calvary
        G                          
Had it not been for the old rugged 
 D
Cross
            C                      
And had it not been for a man 
  G
called Jesus
       G        D             G
Then forever my soul would be lost


Verse2
       G                C         
I'm so glad that he was willing to
          G
 drink his bitter cup
            G                      
Although he prayed, "Father, let it
           D
 pass from me."
           C                     
And I'm so glad he didn't call to 
          G
heaven's angels
            G                 D   
"From these hands, pull these 
               G
nails that torment me"
