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
So why? Why?

Why? Why, must Jesus go to Calvary?
Why, must Jesus bear the cross for all?
Cuz we have sinned and fallen 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)

I Bless Your Name by Spirit of Praise Choir

In prisoners’ chains, With bleeding stripes
Paul and Silas prayed that night
And in their pain began to sing
Their chains were loosed; And they were free

Chorus:
I bless Your Name, I bless Your Name
I give You honor, give You praise
You are the Life, the Truth, the Way
I bless Your Name, I bless Your Name

Some midnight hour, If you should find
You’re in a prison in your mind
Sing out and praise, Defy these chains
And they will fall, In Jesus’ Name

(Chorus) x2

Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus
I bless your Name, I bless your Name

(Chorus)

Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus
I bless your Name, I bless your Name
I bless your Name, I bless your Name
I bless your Name, I bless your Name

(Ntokozo Mbambo’s Version – YouTube)

Let Your living water flow over my soul,
Let your Holy Spirit come and take control,
In every situation that has troubled my mind,
All my cares and burdens unto you I roll
All my cares and burdens unto you I roll (Repeat)

Jesus, Jesus, Jesus.
(Call unto the son of the living God)
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus.
(Call unto the Spirit of the living God)
Spirit, Spirit, Spirit
(Call unto the mighty one who sits on the throne, Father)
Father, Father, Father

(Verse 1)

All my cares and burdens unto you I roll x6
