He Didn't Come Down
Recorded by The Cathedral Quartet
Written by Al Harkins

C                                    G7
Often I stop to think just where I'd be
                                    C
Had Jesus come down from that cruel tree
                                             F
There'd be no hope for man no peace could be found
               C         G7             C
Praise God I'm glad that He didn't come down

                                         G7
He didn't come down oh no He didn't come down
                                    C
Ten thousand angels were camped all around
                                     F
He could have called them to set Him free
                     C         G7          C
But He stayed on the cross for you and for me

                                           G7
Picture His mother there with tears in her eyes
                                               C
As they mocked and scorned Him and pierced His side
                                           F
They said if Thou be King then come to the ground
              C            G7                 C
But He prayed forgive them and He didn't come down

                                         G7
He didn't come down oh no He didn't come down
                                    C
Ten thousand angels were camped all around
                                     F
He could have called them to set Him free
                     C         G7          C
But He stayed on the cross for you and for me
