The Cyber Hymnal ‎#2262

2262. He Died for Thee

1. The Son of God was crucified,
Upon the cross the Savior died;
On Calvary His life He gave,
That He thy precious soul might save.

Refrain
He died for thee, He died for thee,
Upon the cross He died for thee;
O come to Him, O come today,
Let Jesus bear thy sins away.

2. He gave His life to rescue thee,
And He would now thy Savior be;
Give Him thy heart, and thou shalt know
The joy of Heaven here below. [Refrain]

3. Yes, come to Him who died for thee,
And let Him now thy Savior be;
Receive Him now, and thou shalt find
The chains of sin no longer bind. [Refrain]

4. He died for thee! O shall it be,
He came and died in vain for thee?
Nay, rather, come to Him today
And let Him wash thy sins away. [Refrain]
