Because you loved us first
Now we can love each other
We know what love is worth
Because you loved us first
I wounded everyone I cared about; I shut them out
I built a barricade of pride they could not climb
Your death, your blood, your love, changed everything
Because you loved us first
Now we can love each other
We know what love is worth
Because you loved us first
We can love the way that you love us
Because you loved us first
We can love the way that you love us
Because you loved us first
Your wounded hands and feet; your scars, they speak of love for me
This selfless sacrifice; a love I've never seen
The blood you shed for me has set me free
Love is laying down your life
Love is marked with sacrifice
Love will always persevere when nothing else will pay that price
Love forgives, and love defends
Love is patient without end
Love, he came and called us friends and died so we could be with him
Because you loved us first
Now we can love each other
You gave us your own life
Your love for us is sacrifice
Lay my life down for my brothers
Lay my life down for my family
Lay my life down for my sisters
Lay my life down for my enemies
