You Didn’t Have To Do It

[Chorus]
I'll never know why
Why You did what You did
You didn't have to die
But You did
You hung on the cross
So that I wouldn't be lost
You took my place
Now You're pleadin' my case
You didn't have to do it
Oh, but I'm glad You did
You didn't have to do it
But I'm glad You did

[Verse 1]
You didn't have to suffer
You didn't have to give Your life
You could have come down from the cross
But You chose to die
You said "Father forgive them
For they know not what they do"
And when they pierced Your side
You just hung bled and died

[Chorus]
I'll never know why
Why You did what You did
You didn't have to die
But You did
You hung on the cross
So that I wouldn't be lost
You took my place
Now You're pleadin' my case
You didn't have to do it
Oh, but I'm glad You did
You didn't have to do it
But I'm glad You did

[Verse 2]
You didn't have to come down
From the Father's side
But because of Your love for me
You made the sacrifice
You knew no sin
But became sin for me
An all who believe
Can live eternally

[Chorus]
I'll never know why
Why You did what You did
You didn't have to die
But You did
You hung on the cross
So that I wouldn't be lost
You took my place
Now You're pleadin' my case
You didn't have to do it
Oh, but I'm glad You did, yeah
You didn't have to do it
But I'm glad You did, oh, yeah, yeah

[Bridge 1]
I was so unworthy
But You love me still
(You didn't have to do it)
But I'm glad You did
I'm so glad You did
(You didn't have to do it)
You didn't have to suffer
(But I'm glad You did)
Ooh, I'm glad you did
(You didn't have to do it)
You didn't have to give Your life
(But I'm glad You did)
I'm so glad You dud

[Bridge 2]
You could have come down from the cross
Then my soul would be lost
But You chose to stay
And Your love made a way

[Outro]
(You didn't have to do it)
Yeah, yeah
You didn't have to do it
(But I'm glad You did)
I'm so glad You did
(You didn't have to do it)
When they pierced Your side
(But I'm glad You did)
You just hung bled and died
(You didn't have to do it)
You did it all to save my soul
(But I'm glad You did)
Just to give me life
You didn't have to do it
Oh, but I'm glad You did
