(a song in three non-repeating parts)


1. Outside I hear them talking;
Could it be it's me they're mocking?
"An eye for an eye" is all that matters anymore.

Pilate put me in this prison,
And I deserve what I've been given:
"A life for a life," that's the one I'm dying for.

I caught the eye of a man who was beaten.
I saw the truth-- even I believed him.
Now I can tell from my cell, who they're wantin' more.

I hear them cry, "Release Barabbas!"
In disbelief I turned to Jesus.
He looked at me and He said "Go free, you're the one I'm dying for."


2. "For the one who is hurting and the one who has done wrong,
For the one who needs healing and feels like hope is gone,
For the weary who can't carry his cross anymore--
You're the one, You're the one I'm dying for."


3. For the one with all the questions, and the one who just believes;
For the one who casts the first stone, and the one down on her knees;
For the weary who can't carry his cross anymore--
You're the one, You're the one...
Oh you're the one, You're the one I'm dying for..."
