Had It Not Been

Gaither Vocal Band

Just suppose God searched through Heaven
And couldn't find one willing to be
The supreme sacrifice that was needed
Just to buy eternal life for you and 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 soul would be lost

And I'm so glad He was willing to drink His bittercup
Although He prayed: Father, let it pass from me
And I'm so glad He never called Heaven's angels
From these hands, pulled the nails that torment 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 soul would be lost

Then forever my soul would be lost
