98. Por que me amou assim?

1. Morte cruel padeceu meu Jesus.
Por que me amou assim?
Já reservada me fora essa cruz.
Por que me amou assim?

Estribilho:
Por que me amou assim?
Por que me amou assim?
Por que sofreu Jesus por mim?
Por que me amou assim?

2. Foi meu pecado que O crucificou.
Por que me amou assim?
Para salvar-me, que dor suportou!
Por que me amou assim? [Estribilho]

3. Ó, que agonia, que dor tão atroz!
Por que me amou assim?
Hei de atender-Lh’a dulcíssima voz;
Por que me amou assim? [Estribilho]
