1 Were you there when they crucified my Lord? O! Sometimes it causes me to tremble, tremble, tremble. Were you there when they crucified my Lord?

2 Were you there when they nailed Him to the tree? O! Sometimes it causes me to tremble, tremble, tremble. Were you there when they nailed Him to the tree?

3 Were you there when they laid Him in the tomb? O! Sometimes it causes me to tremble, tremble, tremble. Were you there when they laid Him in the tomb?

4 Were you there when He rose up from the grave? O! Sometimes it causes me to tremble, tremble, tremble. Were you there when He rose up from the grave?
