Lyrics

"GOD SO LOVED THE WORLD"

V1
GOD SO LOVED THE WORLD, THAT HE GAVE HIS ONLY SON
THAT WHO SO EVER MIGHT BELIEVE, WOULDN?T PERISH NO NOT ONE
HE DIDN?T COME TO CONDEMN, BUT THAT WE MIGHT BE SAVED THROUGH HIM
THAT?S THE LOVE OF GOD ABOVE, JESUS DIED FOR YOU AND ME?

THAT?S THE SONG THEY USE TO SING, IN CHILDRENS CHURCH ON SUNDAY
BUT, HE GREW UP AND MOVED AWAY, IN SEARCH OF WEALTH AND FAME
DETERMINED TO DO THINGS HIS WAY, NEVER DREAMED THE PRICE HE?D PAY
TO GET TO WHERE HE IS TODAY, IT COST HIM EVERYTHING?

BRIDGE
BUT IN ALL THAT HE?S ACCOMPLISHED, THERE?S STILL A BITTER TASTE
AN EMPTINESS DOWN DEEP INSIDE, THAT HE JUST CAN?T ESCAPE?

THEN WALKIN? BY A CHURCH ONE DAY, HE STOPPED TO HEAR THE MUSIC PLAY
FELT THE BURDENS ROLL AWAY, AS THE CHILDREN BEGAN TO SING?

CHORUS
(THAT OLD FAMILIAR SONG)
GOD SO LOVED THE WORLD, THAT HE GAVE HIS ONLY SON
THAT WHO SO EVER MIGHT BELIVE, WOULDN?T PERISH NO NOT ONE
HE DIDN?T COME TO CONDEM, BUT THAT WE MIGHT BE SAVED THROUGH HIM
THAT?S THE LOVE OF GOD ABOVE, JESUS DIED FOR YOU AND ME?

CHORUS
GOD SO LOVED THE WORLD, THAT HE GAVE HIS ONLY SON
WHO SO EVER MIGHT BELIEVE, WOULDN?T PERISH NO NOT ONE
HE DIDN?T COME TO CONDEMN, BUT THAT WE MIGHT BE SAVED THROUGH HIM
THAT?S THE LOVE OF GOD ABOVE, JESUS DIED FOR YOU AND ME?

TAG
(GOD SO LOVED THE WORLD)
THAT?S THE LOVE OF GOD, JESUS DIED FOR YOU AND_____ME
