lirik lagu illijam – why?
verse 1
he had everything, king on the throne of the universe/
power & riches, fame & position, praise of the angels & idyllic living/
he gave up everything, left home in the heavens for ruined earth/
our maker became one of us, infinite god covered in dust/
he said he wanted to make a trade/
all our wickedness & our shame/
all our punishment, & our sorrow, horrific deaths & h-ll to follow/
for his free gift of blessed rescue, wrath appeased so he’s pleased to bless you/
his perfection, rest no need to stress dude/
life eternal let his love arrest you/
what are we waiting for? god help our cynicism/
it’s a wicked trick in sickened sinners bit with venom bitter like cinnamon’s in em/
who are we to tell you, what you can & can’t do?/
trading your blessedness for all our wretchedness; faith is accepting this to be true/
hook
why?
would you die?
for us, for dust, for love, you crushed your only son/
my h-ll on your soul/
i’m beyond grateful/
gave your best to buy me/
hallelujah why me?/ 2x
you save for the praise of your glorious grace/
i’m in awe of your love but much more of your face/
verse 2
what motivated, the one whom i hated/
to go on exchangin, my doom for salvation/
one thing’s clear man, i know it wasn’t me/
wasn’t anything i did, i was 6 feet deep/
i was revelin dead in sin dark no edison, devil been bedeviling me/
but god rich in mercy, because of his great love/
sent jesus to absorb the just due for the evil crimes we’d done/
gifts us purity that we’re in need of to live before the consuming fire/
for eternity no infirmities just joy, his glory our true desire/
it’s absurdity, god help our cynicism/
it’s a wicked trick in sickened sinners bit with venom bitter like cinnamon’s in em/
who are we to tell you, what you can & can’t do?/
trading your blessedness for all our wretchedness; faith is accepting this to be true/
