So You Would Come lyrics. This song depicts God’s love for me. All the things that HE does are so that we would come to Him.

It is the Christmas season again. People celebrate and sing about Santa Claus, Christmas trees, yuletide, log cakes, turkeys, egg-nog, snow, and the spirit of giving. For me, I ponder over the real reason for Christmas: the arrival of Jesus Christ.

Why did he come?

¹⁰ by which will we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.

Hebrews 10:10 WEB

What does the sacrifice of the body of Jesus Christ mean?

Jesus came because He was the only acceptable sacrifice.

The movie The Passion depicted the suffering, torture and death of Jesus Christ. The physical torture: the beating, the whipping, the nails & the three hours hanging under the scorching sun must be excruciatingly painful.

The most terrible part, however, is spiritual. The separation and rejection of God because Jesus bore the sin of the world.

What really happened on the Cross? It was not murder, Jesus came knowing that He will die for us. It was a vivid reminder to me that Jesus paid an enormous price to make me acceptable to God again.

¹⁷ Therefore the Father loves me, because I lay down my life, Isaiah 53:7-8 that I may take it again.

John 10:17 WEB

He came so that I would come.

So You Would Come Lyrics

Words and Music by Russell Fragar

Before the world began
You were [I am] on His mind
And every tear you [I] cry
Is precious in His eyes
Because of His great love
He gave His only Son
Everything was done
So you [I] would come

Nothing you [I] can do
Could make Him love you [me] more
And nothing that you've [I've] done
Could make Him close the door
Because of His great love
He gave His only Son
Everything was done
So you [I] would come 

Come to the Father
Though your [my] gift is small
Broken hearts, broken lives
He will take them all
The power of the Word
The power of His blood
Everything was done
So you [I] would come
