[Verse 1]
Betrayed for thirty pieces of silver
Abused by the people He loved
Rejected by His own disciples
I know He still loved them because
[Chorus]
Jesus said, "Father forgive them"
He was looking down on me
I'm an old Roman soldier
I stood at the foot of the tree
[Verse 2]
In His eyes I saw His compassion
On His cheeks the tracks of His tears
On His back the stripes that He suffered
In His side the wound from my spear
[Chorus]
I heard Jesus say "Father forgive them"
He was looking down on me
I'm an old Roman soldier
I stood at the foot of the tree
[Outro]
I am an old Roman soldier
I stood at the foot of the tree
