Full Lyrics
REFRAIN
For my sake, You were crucified.
For my sake, You bled to death.
My debt to pay. O Lord, how could it be?!
For my sake, on Calvary.
For my sake, on the Cross You died.
Teach me, O Lord, to love You back.
VERSE 1
What law hast Thou broken, my dearest Jesus?
That such sharp sentence should be past on You?
What grievous crime must You confess, Lord?
What dark transgression, O Lord, my God.
VERSE 2
Where comes this sorrow; this mortal anguish?
It is my sins for which You, Lord, must languish.
All the wrath, yes, all the woes;
Thou dost inherit, these I do merit.
VERSE 3
O wondrous love, whose depth no heart hast sounded,
that brought You here, by foes and thieves surrounded.
Yet in my world; all worldly pleasures,
heedless, I was trying, while Thy was dying.
