"And His affection for you is all the greater when He remembers that you were all obedient, receiving Him with fear and trembling"-2 Corinthians 7:15 (NIV).

The song "Were you there when they crucified my Lord?" was written, before 1865, by an anonymous lyricist.  It takes you through Christ's crucifixion: "Were you there when they nailed Him to the tree?" "Were you there when they pierced Him in His side?" "Were you there when they laid Him in the tomb?"  Each verse holding the heartfelt, passionate lyric: "Oh, sometimes it causes me to tremble, tremble, tremble.  Were you there when they crucified my Lord?"  We demonstrate our love for Jesus by being obedient (John 14:15).  Let us receive Him with trembling.
