Should've Been Me

I’ve read the story I’ve seen the movie I give to charity and tithe my ten percent These I remember but I so easily forget All these years never heard it like this It should’ve been me It should’ve been us Should’ve been there hanging on a cross All of this shame All of these scars Should have been stains that were never washed Why do I hide Why do You try over and over and over again I guess it just leaves me sayin’ thank God It leaves me sayin’ thank God Thank God for the should’ve been I live a good life I love a great wife Our kids are beautiful We’ve got friends down the street If I’m so thankful Why do I easily forget Oh that you died for all of this For this heart you changed This soul you raised My God for taking my place
