What a Savior Lyrics by Shelly E. Johnson

Christmas Is Beautiful

2017

[Verse 1]
You would rather trade Your throne
Than rule an empty Heaven
Oh, the distance You would go
To grace us with Your presence

[Verse 2]
You would rather spare Your crown
Than be King of only angels
Oh, what love would call You down
From glory to a manger

[Chorus 1]
Oh, Hallelujah!
Jesus, Messiah
No one greater
What a Savior!

[Verse 3]
You would rather bear a cross
Than lose a son or daughter
Oh, the road You walked for us
To win our hearts forever

[Chorus 2]
Oh, Hallelujah!
Jesus, Messiah
No one greater
What a Savior!
Oh, Hallelujah!
Jesus, Messiah
No one greater
What a Savior!
What a Savior!

[Bridge]
Just to be near to me
You traded everything
Just to be near to me
You gave it all!
Just to be near to me
You traded everything
Just to be near to me
You gave it all!
Just to be near to me
You traded everything
Just to be near to me
You gave it all!!

[Chorus 3]
Oh, Hallelujah!
Jesus, Messiah
No one greater
What a Savior!
Behold the wonder
Glory and splendor
No one greater
What a Savior!
What a Savior!
