he had to kill harry because harry was a threat. harrys profecy (well more of it) says that harry has more power than voldormort. so voldomort did not want competion to be the most powerfull wizard. so he tryed to kill harry to iliminate the threat.

if you want more the rest of this is info in the 7th book and i belive the chapter is called the princes memories or something like that.
