Why Lyrics by Horizon Music

Victory

2017

[Verse 1]
You know my guilt and You know my shame
'Cause You held it on Your shoulders as they nailed You to a tree
You took my sin and You shared my blame
And You cleansed me with Your blood as they pierced Your hands and feet
[Chorus 1]
Why did You do it for me?
Why did You do it for me?
[Verse 2]
You know my trials and You own my pain
'Cause You left the throne of heaven to become someone like me
You took Your crown and you chose to trade it
For thorns that broke Your brow while they mocked Your majesty
[Chorus 2]
Why did You do it for me?
Why did You do it for me?
I'm alive because You died
Why did You do it for me?
[Post-Chorus]
You're alive, You're alive
You're alive, You're alive
You're alive, You're alive
You're alive, You're alive
[Bridge]
Jesus, I'm nothing without You
But now I'm perfectly loved
Washed in the flood of Your mercy
Cleansed by Your innocent blood
Jesus, I'm nothing without You
But now I'm perfectly loved
Washed in the flood of Your mercy
Cleansed by Your innocent blood
[Chorus 2]
Why did You do it for me?
Why did You do it for me?
I'm alive because You died
Why did You do it for me?
