I Love You This Much

He didn't have the answers

To half the questions his son ask him

A child’s mind is a curious thing

But when his son hugged him and said Dad

You know I love you

How much do you love me

Daddy didn't have to think

With his arms open wide

Just as far as they could go

He said as far as I can reach

Is not enough to show

I would give my life for you

You are my flesh and blood

I love you this much

She stood there crying

Broken-hearted

Looking up at Him

And said why are You doing this

He looks down at her wanting to hold her

And wipe her tears away

He has to leave and that's the way it is

She gave her son one last kiss

With her arms open wide

Just as far as they could go

She said as far as I can reach

Is not enough to show

I would give my life for You

You are my flesh and blood

I love You this much

And they raised his broken body above the crowd

Drove in the nails as the rain came down

With His arms open wide

Just as far as they could go

He said as far as I can reach

Is not enough to show

I would give my life for you

You are my flesh and blood

I love you this much

I love you this much
