Country music legend Travis Tritt captivated with his moving and emotional “Why Me” cover.

No one would have a chance without Jesus Christ’s ultimate sacrifice on the cross. All would be doomed and condemned to live out their days on Earth in their sin and shame. Everyone would undoubtedly be headed for hell once their time on Earth was up. However, that no longer has to be the case.

Christ willingly gave Himself, suffering a horrible, agonizing and humiliating death on the cross for me and you. Because of Christ, we can be forgiven and experience eternal life with Him someday. That’s a beautiful and awe-inspiring gift offered freely to everyone.

While none could ever do anything to be worthy of such a gift, a sacrifice, Christ’s sacrifice on the cross will likely still cause you to wonder, “Why me, Lord? What did You go through all that for me?”

In a clip posted on YouTube, Travis asks that exact question and others as he beautifully performs “Why Me,” a song originally written, performed and recorded by Kris Kristofferson.

Despite our imperfections and flaws, the Lord, in addition to offering forgiveness and salvation, constantly blesses our lives in many ways. Again, none of which we deserve, but he does so anyway.

The song’s opening verse is beautiful. It explains that we have done absolutely nothing to deserve God’s goodness, love and blessings.

“Why me, Lord, what have I ever done

To deserve even one

Of the pleasures I’ve known

Tell me, Lord, what did I ever do”

Later in the tune, the songwriter understands that despite Christ’s love and blessings, they still fall way short of deserving any of it. This is likely something that a lot of people struggle with: believing they are not deserving of Christ’s love and forgiveness. But none of us are, and we never will be; that’s what makes Christ’s love so incredibly astounding. They are gifts to all.

Romans 5:8 “But God has made clear his love to us, in that, when we were still sinners, Christ gave his life for us.”
