Lyrics
Font size:
Women:
For every broken heart in need of mending.
For every lonely child who needs befriending;
Men:
For every time the innocent will ever need defending
All :
That’s why He came.
[Chorus]
That’s why He came for all the lost and lonely.
That’s why He came for all the questions only love explains
And so that when we need Him We can call upon His name
That’s why He came.
Women:
To do the perfect will Of God His Father
To face His death just like a lamb to slaughter
Men:
So He could pour out life like living water
All: That’s why He came.
[Bridge]
To bring His light into darkness
And His healing to our pain
To bring us hope When all seems hopeless
That’s why Jesus came.
[Chorus]
That’s why He came for all the lost and lonely.
That’s why He came for all the questions only love explains
And so that when we need Him We can call upon His name
That’s why He came, That’s why He came
For every broken heart in need of mending.
For every lonely child who needs befriending;
Men:
For every time the innocent will ever need defending
All :
That’s why He came.
[Chorus]
That’s why He came for all the lost and lonely.
That’s why He came for all the questions only love explains
And so that when we need Him We can call upon His name
That’s why He came.
Women:
To do the perfect will Of God His Father
To face His death just like a lamb to slaughter
Men:
So He could pour out life like living water
All: That’s why He came.
[Bridge]
To bring His light into darkness
And His healing to our pain
To bring us hope When all seems hopeless
That’s why Jesus came.
[Chorus]
That’s why He came for all the lost and lonely.
That’s why He came for all the questions only love explains
And so that when we need Him We can call upon His name
That’s why He came, That’s why He came
