Why |
| Michael Card |
| Why did it have to be a friend |
| Who chose to betray the Lord |
| Why did he use a kiss to show them |
| That’s not what a kiss is for |
| Only a friend can betray a friend |
| A stranger has nothing to gain |
| And only a friend comes close enough |
| To ever cause so much pain |
| And why did there have to be thorny |
| Crown pressed upon His head |
| It should have been the royal one |
| Made of jewels and gold instead |
| It had to be a crown of thorns |
| Because in this life that we live |
| For all who seek to love |
| A thorn is all the world has to give |
| And why did it have to be |
| A heavy cross He was made to bare |
| And why did they nail His feet and hands |
| His love would have held Him there |
| It was a cross for on a cross |
| A thief was supposed to pay |
| And Jesus had come into the world |
| To steal every heart away |
| Yes, Jesus had come into the world |
| To steal every heart away |
