For
Those Tears I Died
Lyrics:
Marsha Stevens
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
And
just like you promised, you came there to stay
I just
had to pray.
(Chorus)
And
Jesus said, Come to the water, stand by my side,
I know
you are thirsty, you won’t be denied.
I felt
every teardrop when in darkness you cried,
And I
strove to remind you that for those tears I died.
Repeat
Chorus
Your
goodness so great I can’t understand,
And,
dear Lord, I know that this was all planned.
Saviour,
you’re here now, and always will be.
Your
love is so great and always so free, Jesus and me.
Repeat
Chorus
Jesus,
I give you my heart and my soul.
I know,
without God I’d never be whole,
Saviour,
you opened up all the right doors,
And I
thank you and praise you from earth’s humble shores.
Take
me, I’m yours.
