English text

Were you there when they crucified my Lord?
Oh, were you there? Were you there when they crucified my Lord?
Were you there when they crucified my Lord?
Were you there when they laid Him in the tomb?
Oh, were you there? Were you there when they laid Him in the tomb?
Sometimes it causes me to tremble, brothers, tremble!
Were you there when they laid Him in the tomb?
