I Know Why

I know why He carried the cross up Calvary’s hill
And wore the crown of thorns that He wore
I know why he bled and died upon the rugged cross
And bore the pain that he bore

For me, for me, for everyone that’s ever drawn a breath of life.
He could see you in His mind, and He knew he had to die if just for me.

I’ve not been an angel by any means at all
But when I needed forgiveness all I had to do was call
On Jesus my savior, and He pulled me through
Gave me eternal life and hope and He’ll do the same for you

For you, for you, for everyone that’s every drawn a breath of life
He could see you in His mind, and He knew he had to die if just for you.

For you, for me, for everyone that’s ever drawn a breath of life.
He could see you in His mind. And the reason that He died was just for you.
