I Gave My Life for Thee

1I gave My life for thee, My precious blood I shed,
That thou might'st ransomed be, And quickened from the dead;
I gave, I gave My life for thee, What hast thou given for Me?

2My 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?

3I 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?
