I Gave My Life for Thee

Author: Frances R. Havergal Appears in 534 hymnals Scripture: Galatians 1:4 Lyrics: 1 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 given for Me? 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 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 bitterest 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?

Author: Brian Wren Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 73 hymnals Scripture: Galatians 1:4 Lyrics: 1 I come with joy to meet my Lord, forgiven, loved, and free; in awe and wonder to recall his life laid down for me. 2 I come with Christians far and near to find, as all are fed, the new community of love in Christ's communion bread. 3 As Christ breaks bread and bids us share, each proud division ends; the love that made us, makes us one, and strangers now are friends. 4 And thus with joy we meet our Lord; his presence, always near, is in such friendship better known: we see and praise him here. 5 Together met, together bound, we'll go our different ways; and as his people in the world, we'll live and speak his praise.

It is a thing most wonderful

Author: W. Walsham How, 1823-1897 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 56 hymnals Scripture: Galatians 1:20 Lyrics: 1 It is a thing most wonderful, almost too wonderful to be, that God's own Son should come from heaven, and die to save a child like me. 2 And yet I know that it is true: he chose a poor and humble lot, and wept and toiled and mourned and died for love of those who loved him not. 3 I cannot tell how he could love a child so weak and full of sin; his love must be most wonderful, if he could die my love to win. 4 I sometimes think about the cross, and shut my eyes, and try to see the cruel nails and crown of thorns, and Jesus crucified for me. 5 But even could I see him die, I could but see a little part of that great love which, like a fire, is always burning in his heart. 6 It is most wonderful to know his love for me so free and sure; but 'tis more wonderful to see my love for him so faint and poor. 7 And yet I want to love thee, Lord; O light the flame within my heart, and I will love thee more and more, until I see thee as thou art.
