Verse 1
Every Day that goes by,
That I’m not thinking about you.
For you died for me,
On the Cross of Calvary.
You shed your blood,
For all of my sins.

Chorus
You were laughed at.
You were scorned and mocked.
You were beat with a whip.
You had your beard pulled out.
You had a crown of thorns pierced in your head.
But if anything this shows us,
It’s the Love of God.

Verse 2
Every Day that goes by,
It’s a day closer to you.
Not a day farther from you,
But a day closer to you.
For you conquered death,
When you rose from the grave.

Chorus
You were laughed at.
You were scorned and mocked.
You were beat with a whip.
You had your beard pulled out.
You had a crown of thorns pierced in your head.
But if anything this shows us,
It’s the Love of God.

Verse 3
Every Day that goes by,
That I’m not thinking about you.
For you’re my Messiah,
The Prince of Peace,
The King of Kings,
The Great I am.
You’re Jehovah,
You’re the Bread of Life.
And you’re my Father.

Chorus
You were laughed at.
You were scorned and mocked.
You were beat with a whip.
You had your beard pulled out.
You had a crown of thorns pierced in your head.
But if anything this shows us,
It’s the Love of God.

Ending
For it's because of my sins,
That went to the cross.
It's because of the cross,
that He showed us His Love.
For it's the Love of God.
It's the Love of God.


The author's comments:
I was at summer camp, and I was really touched on all the different things that Jesus went through for us on the Cross. All of the different things that He endured for our sins. It really shows us the Love of God.
