Why Lyrics by Benjamin Dube & the Dube Brothers
Why, must Jesus go to Calvary?
Why, must Jesus bear the cross for all?
Why, must Jesus die for me and you?
Cuz I know that I am the one deserving to die for my sins
Why? Why, must Jesus go to Calvary?
Why, must Jesus bear the cross for all?
Cuz we have sinned and falllen short of the glory of the Lord
So why? Why?
Why, I want to know why?
He didn’t have to die
It could have been me
It should have been me.
Why? Why?
Jesus had to die (Why? Why?)
I know that I am a sinner
But he didn’t have to die for me (Why? Why?)
I’m the one, I’m the one who deserves to die (Why? Why?)
(Oh Why? Why?, Why? Why?)
For God so loved the world that he gave his only son
That whosoever believeth in him shall not perish (Why? Why?)
Why? Oh Why? (Repeat)
He didn’t have to die; I fell short of the glory of the Lord
For my sins (I love) He didn’t have to die (I love)
But I’m so glad he did (Oh My God, My God)
I don’t know why Jesus loves me (I love)
I don’t know why He cares (I love)
But I’m so glad He did, (oh My God) I’m so glad (My God)
(I love, I love, Oh My God, my God)
