Lyrics

Well He loves me, in the evening
now I lay me down to sleep
I know that Jesus loves me
Yea He loves me, as I'm prayin
to the Lord my soul to keep
I know that Jesus loves me

I dreamed I saw Him in the darkest time
This man called Jesus, what was His crime?
He stopped beside me and He smiled
I saw Him stumble as they led Him down
The yells and curses from an angry crowd
Why, God does Jesus, Why does He have to die?

Why? Why did He die?
Why did He give His life for me? Shed His blood to set me free?
Oh why? Why did He die?
It was the greatest sacrifice
The sacred blood of Jesus Christ

With my sin I nailed His hands
Son of God Son of man
I placed on His head a thorny crown
Now the son refused to shine, blood flowed from His side
The whole world was trembling as His momma cried

Why? Why did He die?
Why did He give His life for me? Shed His blood to set me free?
Oh why? Why did He die?
It was the greatest sacrifice
The sacred blood of Jesus Christ

Well He loves me in the morning
Was it really just a dream?
I dreamed my king just died, for me?
Yea He loves me , I can feel it
Like a brand new summers day
I know He loves me always
