Counted Him Out

If youd'a told me about a few thousand escapees

Stuck between an army

And a sea

And told me that they had no hope

And nowhere to go saying

"Lord, we're goners aren't we?"

From a beach

And if youd'a said that they looked up to the sky saying,

"God, we got no way through"

I woulda counted him out too

I woulda counted him out too

Yeah, if you woulda told me about a man

With holes in his hands

Hangin' on a wooden cross

With a crown of thorns on his head

Said he was dead by the time they

Pulled him off

'N Laid him down on the ground

On the edge of town in a locked up dirt floor tomb

After a day or two

I woulda counted him out too

I woulda counted him out too

If youd'a said his family and his friends

All hung their heads just thinkin'

They'd made the worst mistake

And if youd'a told me that on day three

That that same man they said

Would never see the light of day

Would come walkin' out that grave

Yeah, if you woulda told me about a man

With holes in his hands

Hangin' on a wooden cross

With a crown of thorns on his head

Said he was dead by the time they pulled him off

'N Laid him down on the ground

On the edge of town in a locked up dirt floor tomb

After a day or two

I woulda counted him out too

I woulda counted him out too

If I hadn't seen all what he can do

If I didn't know he could never lose

If I wasn't livin' breathin' proof

I woulda counted him out

Counted him out too

If I hadn't seen all what he can do

If I didn't know he could never lose

If I wasn't livin' breathin' proof

I woulda counted him out

Counted him out too

I woulda counted him out

I woulda counted him out

I woulda counted him out

Yeah if youd'a told me about a few thousand escapees

Stuck between an army

And a sea
