Larnelle Harris Album: I've Just Seen Jesus Track: He Loved Me With The Cross
He Loved Me With The Cross Lyrics
He left a throne in heaven to come to Bethlehem And I will not forget the way He loved me even then And everywhere He traveled He spoke with words of love That said He'd go to any distance To show what I was worthy of And when at last the dusty road Had turned to Calvary He picked up a rugged burden So that one day I would see
Chorus He loved me with a cross He loved me with a cross In answer to the call of love He loved me with a cross And I could not imagine what Loving me would cost My Jesus went to Calvary And loved me with a cross
He knew from the beginning The price He'd have to pay For my heart had gone so far beyond What other loves forgave I wasn't on that hillside To see Him on the tree But as my guilt was placed upon Him I know that somehow He saw me
Chorus
And I would be a sinner still Enslaved by all my sin If it hadn't been for Jesus And the way He loved me still
