Were you there when they crucified my Lord?
Were you there when they crucified my Lord?
Oh-oh-oh, sometimes it causes me to tremble, tremble, tremble
Were you there when they crucified my Lord?
Were you there when they nailed him to the tree?
Were you there when they nailed him to the tree?
Oh-oh-oh, sometimes it causes me to tremble, tremble, tremble
Were you there when they nailed him to the tree?
Were you there when they laid him in the tomb?
Were you there when they laid him in the tomb?
Oh-oh-oh, sometimes it causes me to tremble, tremble, tremble
Were you there when they laid him in the tomb?
Were you there when He rose up from the dead?
Were you there when He rose up from the dead?
Oh-oh-oh sometimes I feel like shouting glory, glory, glory, glory
Were you there when He rose up from the dead?

Been listening to MWS for 20 years or more and our churches need PW leaders like him who are spiritual and have not fallen over to worldly rock-ish sound who sing about me me me. We need men like MWS who lift up God and Him alone. ❤❤❤

[@arthurtanchak2411]

Amen

[@EstherJohnson-hf2by]

Beautiful and anointed! Thank you Michael! I first heard this song in my third grade music class in New Bedford, Massachusetts in the 1970s in a public school. The music teacher was an African American beautiful lady and I’m so glad she exposed us to this beautiful song because being Hispanic and attending a Hispanic church back then I had never heard of this song. Thank you Jesus for your love!!

[@JanetFaker]

[@krees7806]

마이클 W 스미스 목사님 팬입니다. 중고등학생때부터 찬양을 하면서 은혜를 많이 받았다고 저는 생각하면서 살았습니다. 성가대도 10년이상 했습니다. 그렇게 서른살이 넘었을때 저는 교회를 떠났습니다. 그때 찬양하면서 느꼈던 기분이 그냥 기분이었나 항상 시험이 들었습니다. 지금 교회를 떠난지 10년이 지났습니다. 기독교인이 언제 였는지 이젠 잊어버렸습니다. 정말 기독교인으로 사는게 힘듭니다.

[@viccimauldin9786]

Truth be known, none of us in the world now were not. Truth. I love you Jesus my savior.

[@Bermusik.]

shalom Brother, I am one of those people who admires the way you sing and play the piano, I even learn from videos. thank you, continue to be a blessing to glorify God. We ask for prayer support for the Keyboard musical instrument struggle for our ministry. and wants to also teach God's children to serve in the field of music and praise to God.🙏🙏🙏🙏💥

[@anthonymburu5720]

NO ONE ALIVE TODAY WITNESSED THE CRUCIFICTION OF JESUS, NOR WHEN HE WAS LAID IN THE TOMB, NOR WHEN HE ROSE UP FROM THE DEAD. YET HE SAVED EVERYONE ALIVE TODAY. THE BEST THING YOU CAN DO FOR JESUS IS TO REPENT OF YOUR SINS, GET BAPTIZED BY BEING WASHED WITH HOLY WATER AND BELIEVE IN JESUS, HENCE BECOMING HIS CHOSEN SAVED CHILD.
