If it was Jesus' love for us
that led Him to that cursed cross,
what was it that took Him down?
Just ask Joe,
'cause he pulled the nails
and lowered his Lord
limb by limb,
surely he should know.

If it was Jesus' love for us
that kept Him on that tortuous tree,
what was it that took Him down?
Just ask Joe,
'cause he washed the wounds
and wrapped his Lord
head to toe,
surely he should know.

And if it was Jesus' love for us
that made Him die so heavenly high,
what was it that took Him down?
Just ask Joe,
'cause it was in his own tomb
he laid his Lord
rest to resurrection,
and only he would know.
