He Loved Me So

by James Gerald Dailey

Why did my Savior come to earth,
And to the humble go?
Why did He choose a lowly birth?
Because He loved me so!

Why did He drink the bitter cup
Of sorrow, pain, and woe?
Why on the cross be lifted up?
Because He loved me so!

And now He bids me look and live,
And by His grace to know,
A home in glory He will give,
Because He loved me so!

Till Jesus comes I'll sing His praise,
And then to glory go
And reign with Him through endless days,
Because He loved me so!

Chorus

He loved (He loved,) me so; (He loved me so;)
He loved (He loved,) me so; (He loved me so;)
He gave His precious life for me, for me,
Because He loved me so.
