Because He Stayed
by The Cumberland Quartet

Album: New Ship Sailing

The Master's disciples went to buy bread
But He stayed at the well on that day
And a woman got more
Than she came there for
It's as if I can hear her say

Because He stayed, I've been delivered
One more prisoner is free
Because He stayed, I've been forgiven
He's made a new person of me
What a great transformation
What sweet salvation
What hope and healing He gave
And I'm not the same
Since Jesus came
And I'm singing because He stayed

He climbed the hill to the old wooden cross
But He could have refused it that day
He stayed there for me
No, He wouldn't leave
Till the price of my sin was paid

Because He stayed, I've been delivered
One more prisoner is free
Because He stayed, I've been forgiven
He's made a new person of me
What a great transformation
What sweet salvation
What hope and healing He gave
And I'm not the same
Since Jesus came
And I'm singing because He stayed

Because He stayed, I've been delivered
One more prisoner is free
Because He stayed, I've been forgiven
He's made a new person of me
What a great transformation
What sweet salvation
What hope and healing He gave
And I'm not the same
Since Jesus came
And I'm singing because He stayed

And I'm not the same
Since Jesus came
And I'm singing because He stayed
