Lyrics

For me, Lord, for me, Lord
Though God, You came in flesh to take my place
For me, Lord, for me, Lord
You laid aside Your glory for disgrace
For me, Lord, for me, Lord
You lived a servant’s life although a King
For me, Lord, why for me, Lord
Why should I gain from Your great offering

For You are full of mercy
For You abound with all grace
For me, the blood-washed sinner
For this, I stand here amazed
For You have tender compassion
For You show love without end
For me, the chief of all sinners
I lift Your praises again

For me, Lord, for me, Lord
You walked the shameful road to Calvary
For me, Lord, for me, Lord
Your hands and feet were pierced upon the tree
For me, Lord, for me, Lord
You drank the fullness of the Father’s wrath
For me, Lord, why for me, Lord
Why should I gain from Your great saving death
