Tell Me Why

Jesus, did you know, when you were a little child, You were the Messiah, of the world, Did you know you'd pay the cost, upon a rugged cross, And for sinful souls, at you, sin would be hurled.

When God told you of His plan, did you fully understand, Just what He was asking you to do, Did you love us before then, or was it then your love began, For this sin sick world, that you were born into.

All these things I'd like to know, though it happened long ago, You still love us, and you're with us, day by day. Thank you Lord for what you've done, giving up your precious Son, Our undeserving, sinful souls to save.

When I see you face to face, someday in that glorious place, Perhaps you'll tell me, what I want to know, As you take me by the hand, maybe then I'll understand, The whole creation, and why you love us so. Jeannette E. Smith September 01, 2002
