G
Had It Not Been

G C G
Just suppose God searched through Heaven.
D
He couldn't find one willing to be.
G C G
The Supreme Sacrifice that was needed.
D G
That would buy Eternal Life for you and me.

{CHORUS}

G C G
Oh! Had it not been for a place called Mount Calvary.
D
Had it not been for the Old Rugged Cross.
G C G
Had it not been for a man called Jesus.
D G
Then forever my Soul would be lost.

G C G
But I'm so glad He was willing to drink His Bittercup.
D
Although He prayed Father let it pass from Me.
G C G
Oh! I'm so glad He didn't call Heaven's Angels,
D G
For my hands__Pull the nails that torment me.

Chorus"¦

I know the song goes :
Just suppose God searched through heaven
And could not find one willing to be
The supreme sacrifice that was needed
That could buy eternal life for even me

Had it not been for a place called Mount Calvary
Had it not been for the old rugged cross
Had it not been for a man called Jesus
Then forever my sould would be lost
