about

This song is special to me as it was the first song of mine that my first praise band agreed to play. We played it several times during the 2007 and 2008 Christmas seasons and was usually well received, out of politeness or appreciation I'm not sure ;-).

lyrics

Verse 1:
He came to Mary in Bethlehem.
He came to Joseph by God's command.
He came to twelve men of Galilee.
He came to save me on Calvary!

Chorus:
He came for love. He came for love.
He came for love. He came for love.

Verse 2:
He came to heal the deaf and blind.
He came for lost sheep to seek and find.
He came to cast out the hosts of hell.
He came to obey the Father's will!

Chorus

Verse 3:
He came to send us to everywhere.
He came to teach us His love to share.
He came to give strength for every hour.
He came to fill us with His power!

Bridge:
He left all of heavens glory.
I cannot help but tell the story
of the God who saved my soul,
washed my sins away, and made me whole - His name is Jesus!

Chorus
