129. I Gave My Life for Thee
I gave my life for thee, my precious blood I shed, That thou mightst ransomed be, and quickened from the dead; I gave, I gave my life for thee, what hast thou done for me? I gave, I gave my life for thee, what hast thou done for me?
2.
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? 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 bitt'rest agony, to rescue thee from hell; I've borne, I've borne it all for thee, what hast thou borne for me? I've borne, 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? I bring, I bring rich gifts to thee, what hast thou brought to me?
