It's Because Of God's Love
Out of envy, out of hatred, Jesus was torn;
He was beaten, betrayed, mocked and rejected.
Hurt beyond words, He was unrecognizable;
God's only begotten Son - was not accepted.
The crowds in unison chanted, Crucify Him!
Crucify Him! Crucify Him! the hateful roared.
He suffered, He bled, and they jeered, as He died.
But the power of hell was broken by our Lord.
Tears mingled in His blood at the foot of the cross;
But a miracle from heaven was on its way;
Salvation was born on that Resurrection day;
Hallelujah, Jesus came to seek and to save.
All hell could not defeat Him, death could not keep him;
For Jesus our Saviour was God in human flesh.
It's because of God's love, His salvation is known;
Now under His wings is comfort and perfect rest.

Because Of God's Love
( Song)©
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
Ephesians 2:1-9
And you hath he quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins;
Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience:
Among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others. But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us,
Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ,
And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus:
That in the ages to come he might shew the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus.
For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:
Not of works, lest any man should boast.
