I GAVE MY LIFE FOR THEE

1.  I gave my life for thee,
     My precious blood I shed,
     That thou might’st ransomed be,
     And quickened from the dead;
     I gave, I gave My life for thee,
     What hast thou giv’n for Me?

2.  I spent long years for thee
     In weariness and woe,
     That an eternity
     Of joy thou mightest know:
     I spent, I spent long years for thee;
     Hast thou spent one for Me?

3.  My Father’s home of light,
     My glory-circled throne
     I left for earthly night
     For wand’rings sad and lone;
     I left, I left it all for thee,
     Hast thou left aught for Me?
4.  I suffered much for thee,
     More than thy tongue can tell,
     Of bitt’rest agony –
     To rescue thee from hell;
     I’ve borne, I’ve borne it all for thee,
    What hast thou borne for Me?

5.  Lord, let my life be given,
     And every moment spent,
     For God, for souls, for heaven,
     And all earth’s ties be rent
     Thou gav’st, Thou gav’st Thyself for me,
     Now I give all for Thee.
