He Loved Us More
by Damaris Carbaugh

Album: All Embracing Love

Why would a king leave His throne and His crown
To come to earth as a stranger?
And why would He leave the safety of heaven
In exchange for all earthly danger?
It is more than my mind can conceive,
Yet somehow in my heart I believe.

Chorus:
More than the crown, more than the throne,
More than the heavens that He called home;
More than all of these He loved even me,
Then He left it all because He loved us more.

God's only Son became Son of Man,
Bringing the plan of salvation;
That great Lamb of God gave His life for a ransom
To buy redemption for all generations;
Because of His love for a world that was so lost,
He chose to suffer the shame of the cross.

(repeat chorus)

He left it all because He loved us more
Than the crown, more than the throne,
More than the heavens that He called home;
More than all of these He loved even me,
Then He left it all because He loved us more.
He left it all because He loved us more.
My Jesus loved us more.
