Why - Nichole Nordeman[00:00:00]
We rode into town the other day[00:00:21]
Just me and my daddy[00:00:27]
He said I'd finally reached that age[00:00:33]
And I could ride next to him on a horse[00:00:39]
That of course was not quite as wide[00:00:46]
We heard a crowd of people shouting[00:00:50]
And so we stopped to find out why[00:00:56]
And there was that man that my dad said he loved[00:01:02]
But today there was fear in his eyes[00:01:09]
So I said daddy why are they screaming[00:01:16]
Why are the faces of some of them beaming[00:01:22]
Why is he dressed in that bright purple robe[00:01:28]
I'll bet that crown hurts him more than he shows[00:01:34]
Daddy please can't you do something[00:01:39]
He looks as though he's gonna cry[00:01:45]
You said he was stronger than all of those guys[00:01:51]
Daddy please tell me why[00:01:58]
Why does everyone want him to die[00:02:02]
Later that day the sky grew cloudy[00:02:13]
And daddy said I should go inside[00:02:19]
Somehow he knew things would get stormy[00:02:25]
Boy was he right but I could not keep from wondering[00:02:31]
If there was something he had to hide[00:02:38]
So after he left I had to find out[00:02:42]
I was not afraid of getting lost so I followed the crowds[00:02:48]
To a hill where I knew men had been killed[00:02:58]
And I heard a voice come from the 'cross[00:03:04]
And it said father why are they screaming[00:03:11]
Why are the faces of some of them beaming[00:03:17]
Why are they casting their lots for my robe[00:03:23]
This crown of thorns hurts me more than it shows[00:03:29]
Father please can't you do something[00:03:34]
I know that you must hear my cry[00:03:40]
I thought I could handle the 'cross of this size[00:03:45]
Father remind me why[00:03:52]
Why does everyone want me to die[00:03:56]
Oh when will I understand why[00:04:02]
My precious son I hear them screaming[00:04:11]
I'm watching the face of the enemy beaming[00:04:17]
But soon I will clothe you in robes of my own[00:04:24]
Jesus this hurts me much more than you know[00:04:30]
But this dark hour I must do nothing[00:04:35]
Though I've heard your unbearable cry[00:04:41]
The power in your blood destroys all of the lies[00:04:50]
Soon you'll see past their unmerciful eyes[00:04:57]
Look there below see the child[00:05:03]
Trembling by her father's side[00:05:09]
Now I can tell you why[00:05:15]
She is why you must die[00:05:24]
