Because You love me

You did it all for me
Just so I could be set free
Silence echoed back at you
As your father hid from your view
He held his tears back
A he heard the dreaded whack
You knew all along how my life would go
The mistakes I'd make and the seeds I'd sow
The nail pierced your hand
For all the thoughts of me that outnumbered the grains of sand
Your father turned his back as pain erupted in your eyes
Trying not to hear your desperate cries
Every moment you were on the cross
You never thought of your loss
But of me and my gain
And how I'd need you to take my pain
You knew it was only through you I'd survive
And only in you I could thrive
It was all because you loved me
And wanted me to see
God sat on his hands and covered his mouth
With one word he could have changed it all
He wanted to come quick to his sons call
But he couldn't because I flashed through his mind
And my fate he had already signed
His final; words were about me
So he went to hell and got the key
He'd rather go to hell for my life
Then go to heaven and leave me with all my strife
His love ran so deep
He is the Shepard we are his sheep
With one word he created it all
With one word darkness could fall
But his son had to die
For all my unanswered whys
He loved me that much
To keep his son away from his very touch
