I Don't Know Why
by The LeFevre Quartet, Les Cheveldayoff

Album: Eph 5:19

V1:
I've tried to imagine how You felt, for once in Your life, You were alone.
You could have said that word and gone to any other place.
You must have seen my face. My past, You would erase.

Chorus:
I don't know why You did, You had me on Your mind.
In a time of pain, You thought of my name.
I don't know why, but You did, You knew all my mistakes,
And yet, You chose to die for me on that tree.
I don't know why, but You did.

V2:
You must have seen something that would be,
As you hung on that cross and fulfilled Your destiny.
You could have said that word, had me take my rightful place,
With sin upon your face, the word, You did embrace.

Chorus:
I don't know why You did, You had
me on Your mind.
In a time of pain, You thought of my name.
I don't know why, but You did, You knew all my mistakes,
And yet, You chose to die for me on that tree.
I don't know why, but You did.

Bridge:
Jesus, You knew the reason. (I don't know why.)
It should have been me, but You took my place.
(You didn't have to do it.)
But the only way that I could be saved, (You didn't have to do it).
You died on a tree so I can be free. (You didn't have to do it.)
My past is erased because of Your grace. (You didn't have to do it.)
With nothing to owe and You love me so, guess I'll never know.
But You did.Jesus, you knew the reason.
