122 - Why?

Why did they nail Him to Calvary’s tree? Why?  tell me, why was He there?  Jesus the Helper, the Healer, the Friend-- Why?  tell me, why was He there?

All my iniquities on Him were laid He nailed them all to the tree.  Jesus the debt of my sin fully paid He paid the ransom for me.

2.

Why should He love me, a sinner undone Why?  tell me, why should He care?  I do not merit the love He has shown-- Why?  tell me, why should He care?

All my iniquities on Him were laid He nailed them all to the tree.  Jesus the debt of my sin fully paid He paid the ransom for me.

3.

Why should I linger a-far from His love? Why?  tell me, why should I fear?  Somehow I know I should venture and prove-- Why?  tell me, why should I fear?

All my iniquities on Him were laid He nailed them all to the tree.  Jesus the debt of my sin fully paid He paid the ransom for me.
