You're looking for "I'll be There" by the Singing Cookes.

I wasn't there when they placed the nails in His hands
I wasn't there when they mocked His holy name
I wasn't there when they placed the thorns on His head
To see our Savior as he hung and died in shame

But I'll be there when they crown Him king of Glory
I'll be there when they sing redemption song
And I'll be there with the saints of every nation
As they stand before the King upon His thrown

I wasn't there when they took his body down
I wasn't there to see the tomb they laid him in
I wasn't there when the third day finally came
To hear the news that our Savior rose again

But I'll be there when they crown Him king of Glory
I'll be there when they sing redemption song
And I'll be there with the saints of every nation
As they stand before the King upon His thrown

I'll be there with the saints of every nation
As they stand before the King upon His thrown
I'll be there

If you find the words I would like to get them.
I use to sing this song years ago. and I can't remember all the words.

some of the words is

i wasn't there when they led him to pilots hall
and I wasn't there when they took his body down
i wasn't there when they placed him in the tomb
???????
I wish I could remember this song for you and me.

Angelwings:
That is the words. Do you have major guitar chords?
Is there somewhere on the web I can hear the tune?

Do you want minors. I play this song with minors.

I will still like the chords.
Thanks

Did you look at their website? This page seems to have lyrics to a lot of their songs, so you might check it out.

Not quite sure how you have a quartet with 5 people, though.

The other song, however, is awesome, and I highly recommend it. If anyone wants it, I can still post the chords.

hI TERRI:
I was looking for this for a friend and he thinks this isn't the one.
The one he is looking for had a line in the chorus " but i"ll be there when they crown Him King of glory."
He thinks it is a by the Cathedrals.
Thanks

Let me dig them out! I played this last night at church, but I don't have my music with me, so I'll post them tomorrow.
(Still me, but I've registered now.)

Thanks very much.
The cords would be great.
