ALL FOR ME

IF JESUS DIED ON THE CROSS WHO AM I NOT TO DIE 
IF JESUS WEPT ON THE CROSS WHO AM I NOT TO WEEP 
IF JESUS PASS THROUGH THE GRAVE WHO AM I NOT TO STINK 
IF JESUS WENT THROUGH MY PAINS WHO AM I NOT TO BE PAIN
IF JESUS WENT, TOOK THE LASHES FOR ME WHO AM I NOT TO TAKE THE STROKES
IF JESUS CRIED FOR ME WHO AM I NOT TO CRY 

FOR THIS MY EVERY LIFE HE PAID FOR BEFORE I WAS FORMED 
IF JESUS WENT THROUGH DISGRACE WHO AM I NOT TO BE DISGRACED 
HE WAS PUT TO SHAME, HE WAS MADE LAME, OHH AMAZING GRACE FROM THE ONE WHO WAS TAMED.

IF JESUS CARRIED THE CROSS WHO AM I NOT TO BE OVERLOADED
IF JESUS WORRIED FOR ME WHO AM I NOT TO BE WORRIED 
FOR EVERYTHING OF ME, ON HIM, FOR ME  HE TOOK THE BLAME, FOR IF JESUS COULD PRAY WHO AM I NOT TO PRAY.

HE TOOK MY WORST, FLUSHED THEM AND MADE THEM NEW SONGS.
OH WHAT MEMORIES OF JOY, IN MY LABOURS HE'LL FAVOUR.
WHEN I'M FILLED WITH LUST AND IM NOT SURE IF I'M STILL LOVED, HE WHISPERS MY NAME AND SAYS YOU'RE STILL MINE.
