Gillian Welch - By the Mark lyrics

rate me

When I cross over

I will shout and sing

I will know my savior

By the mark where the nails have been

CHORUS:

By the mark where the nails have been

By the sign upon his precious skin

I will know my savior when I come to him

By the mark where the nails have been

A man of riches

May claim a crown of jewels

But the king of heaven

Can be told from the prince of fools

CHORUS

On Calvary Mountain

Where they made him suffer so

All my sin was paid for

A long, long time ago

CHORUS
