Lyrics
Refrain: Love (repeat)
Verse:
When I came to this Earth...relinquishing all,
Understanding the fall caused a separation.
I see your fears and all of your tears.
I can give you peace if you would let me.
Chorus:
Verse 2:
When I carried the cross, the hurt and the pain
and the bloodstains could not stop Me.
I saw the need so I willingly.
Gave My life for you to be free
Chorus:
Verse 3:
Death, hell and the grave could not hold Me...
I told you what I would do.
I'm preparing a place for my sheep
and I'll keep you until that day.
Chorus:
