| For Those Tears I died |
| |
| You said You'd come and share all my sorrows, |
| You said You'd be there for all my tomorrows; |
| I came so close to sending You away, |
| But just like You promised You came there to stay; |
| I just had to pray! |
| |
| And Jesus said, "Come to the water, stand by My side, |
| I know you are thirsty, you won't be denied; |
| I saw ev'ry teardrop when in darkness you cried, |
| And I strove to remind you that for those tears I died". |
| |
| Your goodness so great I can't understand, |
| but, dear Lord, I know now that all this was planned; |
| I know You're here now, and always will be, |
| Your love loosed my chains and in You I'm free; |
| But Jesus, why me? |
| |
| Jesus, I give You my heart and my soul, |
| I know that without God I'd never be whole; |
| Savior, You opened all the right doors, |
| And I thank You and praise You from earth's humble shores |
| Take me, I'm Yours. |
