Because of love

Artist: Natalie Grant


Because of love he left His throne 
and made this earth His home
He did it willingly for you and me 



With heaven left behind He came to save all mankind
From sin and shame He could have walked away
But instead he chose to stay upon that tree
And take a crown of thorns for me because of love

Because of love he bore my pain (bore my pain) 
Shouldering the blame
Why did he chose to go (he didn't have to go, no) 
How could he love me so?
Because of love he called to me 
He said child I will set you free
You'll have life abundantly 
Because of love (because of love)

He gave unselfishly Caused my blinded to eyes to see
It was you and me he had in mind On the road to Calvary
I never known such a perfect love 
I had fallen down but he picked me up
He rescued my soul Now I want the world to know

Because of love he left the grave Prepared for us a place
He'll back again someday And I will hear him say
Because you believed You'll live eternally
And I'll fall on my knees And I will cry

You are holy, holy, lord god almighty 
You are worthy, to receive glory
Honor and power forever Holy, holy, lord god Almighty
You are worthy To receive glory Honor and power forever

Amen, A-amen, oh A-amen
Amen Holy, holy, holy Holy, holy, holy Holy, holy, holy

Jesus you are The angels bow down and say
Holy, holy, holy All creation cries out
Holy, holy, holy You're worthy of all the glory 
Forever Amen
