They said this preacher man Comes from Galilee Did somethin' so absurd that he Deserved to serve my penalty How can it be? I know I've done my wrong 'Cause doin' wrong is something I Do well I know the court of law And somethin' 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 l 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 have Been on my own skin How can it be? How can it be? (Oh) And 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 (ooh-ooh) 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
