Because Of You

Because of you
I now am saved
Through the blood that was shed
Because of you
Golgotha was braved
The crown of thorns pressed on your head

The tortured breathing
While on the cross
Your life hanging on a thread
No one seeing
How great this loss
You giving your life on our stead

Because of you
We get to live
Together in heaven forever
Because of you
Willing to give
The greatest sacrifice ever

So thank you for dying
And giving your life
So we could spend eternity with you
I'm done trying
Caused too much strife
Now I know only you are true

I wrote this based on a message that my pastor preached today. It was incredibly moving, and I wanted to remember it. Hope you enjoy!!
