WHY YOU SENT JESUS DOWN (c)Brittany Whatley, 8 years old
(Brittany was eight years old when she wrote this. A few days before "her poems" we had went to a healing mass with Father Manny. I was composing at the computer when she asked if she could sing some songs. I typed what she said after I listened. She recorded five songs that day. It never happened again, just this one day. Her songs were powerful for an eight year old, brought tears to our eyes, and I will always treasure her little voice on those CD's singing these words!)
I know that you died for our sins
And I know how you died on the cross
So think of us and try to forgive us
For all the things we have done
Don't let the sharks get to us
Tell the dolphins to save us
Just remember, I know
that I have been told
I know that Jesus came to teach us
But there was no way for you to..
So, you sent Jesus down
To tell us for you
Now we are thankful
When you came and tried to tell us
People didn't know
And when they heard the news
You sent Jesus down for us
And to bring us to you
And how they were surpised
We were all so thankful
It had to do with our sins
And how you forgave us
We were so thankful for Jesus
For him to come down
We opened our eyes and seen the light
And also...Jesus
And oh, how you love us
Now I know how you died on the cross
Now I know you love us more than anything
And how you love us more than anything
and
I love you too
