Chorus I'll never know why |
|
Why you did what you did |
|
You didn't have to die |
|
But you did |
|
You hung on the cross |
|
So that I wouldn't be lost |
|
You took my place |
|
Now You're pleadin' my case |
|
You didn't have to do it |
|
Oh, but I'm glad you did |
|
You didn't have to do it |
|
But I'm glad you did |
|
You didn't have to suffer |
|
You didn't have to give your life |
|
You could have come down from the cross |
|
But you chose to die |
|
You said "Father forgive them For they know not what they do" |
|
An when they pierced |
|
Your side |
|
You just hung bled and died |
|
Repeat Chorus |
|
You didn't have to come down |
|
From the Father's side |
|
But because of |
|
Your love for me |
|
You made the sacrifice |
|
You knew no sin |
|
But became sin for me |
|
An all who believe |
|
Can live eternally |
|
Repeat Chorus |
|
You didn't have to do it |
|
But I'm glad you did |
|
You could have come down from the cross |
|
Then my soul would be lost |
|
But You chose to stay |
|
And Your love made a way |
