I Gave My Life for Thee Songtext
von Acappella

I gave my life to 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 given for me?
I gave, I gave my life for thee
What hast thou given for me?

My father′s house of light
My glory circled throne
I left for earthly night
For wandering, sad alone

I left, I left it all for thee
Hast thou left all for me?
I left, I left it all for thee
Hast thou left all for me?


I sufferred much for thee
More than thy tongue can tell
Of bitterist 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?

And I have brought to thee
Down from thine home above
Salvation full and free
My pardon and my love

I bring, I bring rich gifts to thee
What hast thou brought for me?
I bring, I bring rich gifts to thee
What hast thou brought for me?

Scriptural Reference:

"You, however, know all about my teaching, my way of life, my purpose, faith, patience, love, endurance, persecutions, sufferings--what kinds of things happened to me in Antioch, Iconium and Lystra, the persecutions I endured. Yet the Lord rescued me from all of them. In fact, everyone who wants to live a godly life in Christ Jesus will be persecuted. . ." 2 Timothy 3: 10-12
