Because....

Because...

Because of your cross Lord,

You have ears tuned to my cries

Because you hung bleeding

You can heal me.

Because you faced jeers

You will defend me.

Because your robes were stripped

You will clothe me in glory and righteousness.

Because you were bruised

You care for my jolts and hurts.

Because you were mocked

You will reign as King--with me at your side.

Because God turned his back on you

He faces me with arms extended in welcome.

Lord I will never fully comprehend

The good you did for me on your cross.

Thank you. Thank you.  Thank you.
