I Am Barabbas Songtext
They said that this preacher man
Comes from Galilee
There's something so absurd that he deserved to serve my penalty
How can it be?

I know I've done my wrong
'Cause doing wrong is something I do well
I know the court of law and something like this doesn't ring a bell
How can it be?
And how can it be?

I am Barabbas
You took upon my cross
I was a prisoner
Till you bought my bond with blood
And I can't run away
From what my accusers say
'Cause I am Barabbas
I am Barabbas, your friend

They made me sit right there
As I watched them beat that preacher man
39 of all them lashes should've been on my own skin
How can it be?
How can it be? Oh

I am Barabbas
You took upon my cross
I was a prisoner
Till you bought my bond with blood
And I can't run away
From what my accusers say
'Cause I am Barabbas
I am Barabbas, your friend

I'll never understand the repercussions of my every sin
Is this love?
Or is this hatred flowing out from bitterness
How can it be?
But he looked at me
And I said

I am Barabbas
You took upon my cross
I was that prisoner
Till you bought my bond with blood
And I can't run away
From what my accusers say
'Cause I am Barabbas
Oh, I am Barabbas
I am Barabbas, your friend
