Never once denying who He was
He took the punishment even tho he was gentle as a dove
Standing before foreign men as they falsely judge Him
He stands and takes it
Saying I love them
Yes, He loves me and you
Got arrested on charges He did not do
Pilate gave Him a chance to be free
But His people wanted a murderer
Instead of their redeemer
But it was all in the plan
After all He died because of our sins
So they take Him and put a cross on His back
As they get in one more slap
He takes the long hot journey
As He continues to say He loves me
Yes, He loves me and you
He thinks about that as they drive the nails through
Now He’s hanging up on the cross
Naked and beaten, but all is not lost
He hangs His head and dies
For that I can have everlasting life
This is greatest act of love
Three days passes and He’s rising above
Yes this hero dies and rose again
I told you He was great
For He died for your sins
But in our busy world
His song we don’t sing
Because His name isn’t LeBron that bears the number six
But His name is Jesus
And of His love we all are witnesses
Jesus the Unsung hero of love
