Because He loved me, my Savior died, on the cross was crucified,
No greater love for mortal man has ever been known.
Oh praise His dear name, He loved me so,
Now I am His, He's mine, I know
He suffered it all, (He suffered it all)
Because He loved me. (Because He loved me)

Because He Loved Me

Verse I: On a hill called Calvary, Jesus my Lord suffered for me. Carried the cross all the way my sins to atone. Then they placed Him on a cross, great was the pain and the cost. He suffered it all because he loved me.

Chorus: Because He loved me my Savior died on the cross was crucified. No greater love by mortal man has ever been known and oh praise His dear name, He loves me so. Now I am His, He's mine I know He suffered it all because He loved me.

Verse 2: And then they carried Him away, placed Him in a borrowed grave Surely they thought that they had seen the end of this man. Oh but on that third and glorious day, God came and He rolled that stone away. He arose from the dead because He loved me.
