And Then she Told Me

Verse 1 – Child
They nailed Him to a tree,
The Savior who came for you and me.
They hurt Him, they killed Him,
I asked, “Mommy, why would they do that to Him?”
He was perfect, He did no wrong,
Jesus our Christ, loving and strong.

Verse 2 – Child (Story Begins)
And then she told me, holding me tight,
“Some people didn’t understand His light.
They were scared of the truth He came to show,
They didn’t know God’s love could grow.”

Verse 3 – Child
And then she told me, soft and slow,
“Jesus knew this would happen, you know.
But He came anyway because He cared,
He loves the world, He was always there.”

Chorus – Child
And then she told me, don’t be afraid,
Love was the choice that Jesus made.
What looked so sad, what looked so wrong,
Was God’s big love, deep and strong.

Verse 4 – Child
And then she told me the best part too,
“They didn’t win, God’s Word is true.
Jesus is living, He’s alive today,
He walks with us along the way.”

Bridge – Child
She said Jesus sees when I feel small,
He hears me when I call.
He knows my heart, He knows my name,
His love for me will never change.

Outro – Child
So now I know when I’m afraid,
Jesus is with me every day.
Jesus our Christ, forever near,
That’s what she told me, and I’m not scared.
