He Came in Love

Mary McKee and The Genesis

He Came in Love Mary McKee and The Genesis

1 Verse:
Pure and holy son of God
Taking on the form of man
Leaving heaven blessed above
Came to bring salvation's plan

2 Verse:
Righteous father holy one
Looking down on us with love
Gave to us his only son
Sent with blessings from above

Chorus:
But we took him and we nailed
Him to the cross made of wood
And we raised it high and dropped
It in the ground were it stood
And the blood that flows
To the earth below
Brought forgiveness for the world
And it readed his soul

3 Verse:
Peace on earth good will to man
At his birth the angel sang
Love and mercy from the throne
Through the earth his message ran

Chorus:
But we took him and we nailed
Him to the cross made of wood
And we raised it high and dropped
It in the ground were it stood
And the blood that flows
To the earth below
Brought forgiveness for the world
And it readed his soul

Bridge:
He came in love to bring us light in our darkness
He came with peace to bring relief from our pain
He came in joy to bring us rest in our weariness
He came in love to bring us beauty again

Chorus:
But we took him and we nailed
Him to the cross made of wood
And we raised it high and dropped
It in the ground were it stood
And the blood that flows
To the earth below
Brought forgiveness for the world
And it readed his soul
