듣다가 눈물이 난 찬양이 있어서 올려봅니다.
아시는 분들도 계시겠지만 혹시 모르시는분을 위해..
좋은 찬양 함께 들어보고 싶었습니다.



WHY


We rode in the town the other day
Just me and my daddy
He said I'd finally reached that age
And I could ride next to him on a horse
That of course was not quite as wild

We heard a crowd of people shouting
And so we stopped to find out why
And there was that man
That my dad said he loved

But today there was fear in his eyes
So I said, daddy, why are they screaming?
Why are the faces of some of them beaming?
Why is he dressed in that bright purple robe?
I'll bet that crown hurts him more than it shows

Daddy, please, can't you do something?
He looks as though he's gonna cry
You said he was stronger than all of those guys
Daddy, please, tell me why
Why does everyone want him to die?

Later that day, the sky grew cloudy
And daddy said I should go inside
Somehow he knew things would get stormy
Boy, was he right, but I could not keep from wondering
if there was something he had to hide

So after he left, I had to find out
I was not afraid of getting lost
So I followed through the crowds to a hill
Where I knew men had been killed

And I heard a voice come from the crowds
And it said, Father, why are they screaming?
Why are the faces of some of them beaming?
Why are they casting their lots for my robe?
This crown of thorns hurts me more than it shows

Father, please, can't you do something?
I know that you must hear my cry
I thought I could handle the cross of this size
Father, remind me why
Why does everyone want me to die?
Oh, when will I understand why?

My precious son, I hear them screaming
I'm watching the face of the enemy beaming
But soon I will clothe you in robes of my own
Jesus, this hurts me much more than you know

But this dawn hour I must do nothing
Though I've heard your unbearable cry
Power in your blood destroys all of the lies?
Soon you will see past their unmerciful eyes

Look, there below see the child
Trembling by her father's side
Now I can tell you why
She is why you must die
