V1// It’s hard to imagine how you felt
For once in your life, you were alone
You could have said the word
And gone to any other place
You must have seen my face
My past you would erase
CH// I don’t why, but you did
You had me on your mind
In a time of pain, you thought of my name
I don’t why, but you did
You knew all my mistakes and yet
You chose to die for me, on that tree
I don’t know why, but you did
V2// You must have seen something I would be
As you hung on that cross, and fulfilled your destiny
You could have said the word
Had me take my rightful place
With sin upon your face
The world you did embrace
CH// I don’t why, but you did
You had me on your mind
In a time of pain, you thought of my name
I don’t why, but you did
You knew all my mistakes and yet
You chose to die for me, on that tree
I donít know why, but you did
(jesus you knew the reason)
I donít know why
BR// It should have been me but you took my place
(you didn’t have to do it)
But the only way that I could be saved
(you didn’t have to do it)
You died on a tree so I can be free
(you didn’t have to do it)
My past is erased because of your grace
(you didn’t have to do it)
With nothing to owe
Why you’d love me so
Guess i’ll never know
But you did
