1 We wonder why Christ came into the world
A helpless, homeless child;
We wonder why he tolerated men,
The tainted and defiled.
We wonder why! We wonder why!
The Son of God as man came down;
What does this signify?
2 We wonder why Christ came into the world
And let men hurt him so;
We wonder why the Christ should have to die,
Does anybody know?
We wonder why! We wonder why!
The Son of God as man came down,
What does this signify?
Chorus
HE came to give us life in all its fullness,
He came to make the blind to see,
He came to banish death and doubt and darkness,
He came to set his people free.
He liberating love imparted,
He taught men once again to smile;
He came to bind the broken hearted,
And God and man to reconcile.
He came to give us life in all its fullness,
He came to make the blind to see,
He came to banish death and doubt and darkness,
He came to set his people free.
After last chorus:
He came to set us free!
A helpless, homeless child;
We wonder why he tolerated men,
The tainted and defiled.
We wonder why! We wonder why!
The Son of God as man came down;
What does this signify?
2 We wonder why Christ came into the world
And let men hurt him so;
We wonder why the Christ should have to die,
Does anybody know?
We wonder why! We wonder why!
The Son of God as man came down,
What does this signify?
Chorus
HE came to give us life in all its fullness,
He came to make the blind to see,
He came to banish death and doubt and darkness,
He came to set his people free.
He liberating love imparted,
He taught men once again to smile;
He came to bind the broken hearted,
And God and man to reconcile.
He came to give us life in all its fullness,
He came to make the blind to see,
He came to banish death and doubt and darkness,
He came to set his people free.
After last chorus:
He came to set us free!
