I Gave My Life For Thee

 

I gave My life for thee, My precious blood I shed;

That thou might ransomed be, and quickened from the dead;

I gave, I gave My life for thee, what hast thou giv’n for Me? (2x)

 

My Father’s house 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? (2x)

 

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? (2x)

 

And I have bro’t to thee, down from My home above;

Salvation full and free, My pardon and My love;

I bring, I bring rich gifts to thee, what hast thou bro’t for Me? (2x)
