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
|

You Didn't Have to Do It
