Why?

Dear God,

Why did come all the way from heaven down to earth to experience human life?
Why did You allow Yourself to be humilated by the ones You created and even ask forgiveness for them?
Why did You choose to be nailed on the cross when You could've walked straight down from it and return to heaven?
Why do You call out to us relentlessly even when we turn our hearts away from You?
Why...

Because of Love...

Because of Love - Natalie Grant

Because of love he left his throne
And made this earth his home
He did it willingly
For you and me

With heaven left behind
He came to save all mankind
From sin and shame..

He could have walked away
But instead he chose
To stay upon that tree
And take a crown of thorns for me

Because of love...

Because of love he bore my pain
Shouldering the blame
Why did he chose to go
How could he love me so?
Because of love he called to me
He said child I will set you free
You'll have life abundantly
Because of love

He gave unselfishly
Caused my blinded to eyes to see
It was you and me he had in mind
On the road to Calvary
I never known such a perfect love
I had fallen down but he picked me up
He rescued my soul
Now I want the world to know

Because of love he left the grave
Prepared for us a place
Hell back again someday
And I will hear him say..

"Because you believed
You'll live eternally"
And Ill fall on my knees
And I will cry

You are holy, holy, Lord God almighty
You are worthy, to receive glory
Honor and power forever

Holy, holy, Lord God Almighty
You are worthy
To receive glory
Honor and power forever
Amen, A-amen, oh A-amen
Amen

Holy, holy, holy
Holy, holy, holy
Holy, holy, holy

Jesus you are
The angels bow down and say
Holy, holy, holy
All creation cries out
Holy, holy, holy
Youre worthy of all the glory
Forever

Amen

Even if there's no one who would nail Jesus on the cross,

He would've swung the hammer Himself

Lord, because You first loved me, I'll love...

"For God so loved the world
that he gave his one and only Son,
that whoever believes in him
shall not perish but have eternal life."
John 3:16
