Hymn 589 I GAVE MY LIFE FOR Lyrics

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

2. My Father’s house of light,
my glory circled throne,
I left for earthly night for
wanderings sad and lone; I left,
I left it all for thee,
Hast thou left aught for Me?

3. I suffered much for thee
More than thy tongue can tell,
Of bitterest agony
To recue thee from hell,
I’ve born, I’ve borne it all for thee,
What hast thou borne for Me?

4. And I have brought 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 brought to Me?
