John 3:16

He saw the mess we made of things
The shame we hide, the pain it brings
And still He chose to come down here
To walk with us, to draw us near

No crown of gold, no royal seat
Just dusty roads beneath His feet
He knew the cost, He knew the end
But love was stronger than the sin

It wasn't anger holding Him there
It wasn't soldiers or despair
It was love
It was always love

For God so loved the world
He gave His only Son
So anyone who believes in Him
Won't be lost when life is done
Through every nail, through every scar
He chose the cross, that's who You are
For God so loved the world
He gave His only Son

They mocked His name, they cursed His side
Still mercy flowed when He replied
Forgive them, Father, hear Him say
While heaven watched that darkest day

The sky went dark, the earth it shook
The veil was torn, the grave was shook
What looked like loss was victory
Love paid the price to set us free

It wasn't anger holding Him there
It wasn't soldiers or despair
Oh It was love
It was always love
Mhmm

For God so loved the world
He gave His only Son
And death was not the final word
The battle had been won
The stone was rolled, the grave was bare
And hope was standing there
For God so loved the world
He gave His only Son
