Not That You Died

Familiar words so often seen
That precious truth, John 3:16
You loved the world, You offered grace
And what leaves me most amazed

Is not that You died
For the whole world
That humbles my heart
Brings me to my knees
Not that You died
For the whole world
But, Lord, that You died for me

With trembling voice, I confess
Your redeeming love, my unworthiness
That cruel cross, the nails, the spear
Yet mercy flowed, I'm moved to tears

It's not that You died
For the whole world
That humbles my heart
Brings me to my knees
Not that You died
For the whole world
But, Lord, that You died for me
