Middle Man

[Verse 1]

There was a mountain and there were three trees

There was a good man and there were two thieves

A man called Barabas was doomed for the tree

But Jesus took the middle one and Barabas went free

[Chorus]

I love that man in the middle because I know he first loved me

Praise to that man who died on Mount Calvary

The middle man made it possible that I could go free

[Verse 2]

A hill called Golgotha the place of a skull

No yellow flowers, no trees in bloom the scenery was so dull

Three crosses stood black and bold against a darkened sky

And not from pain but a broken heart that middle man died

[Chorus]

I love that man in the middle because I know he first loved me

Praise to that man who died on Mount Calvary

The middle man made it possible that I could go free

I love that man in the middle because I know he first loved me

Praise to that man who died on Mount Calvary

The middle man made it possible that I could go free

Praise to that man who died on Mount Calvary

The middle man made it possible that I could go free
