I Did It All For You

I dreamed one night not long ago Jesus knelt beside my bed - I could tell He had been 
crying  - His eyes were very red - He said "My child I know sometimes you really don't feel 
loved - But I'm here to remind you why I left My throne above - I did it all for you My child - 
I didn't hesitate - Even though I bore much pain My love for you was great - If you had been 
the only one living on the earth - I still would have died for you - That's how much you're 
worth - Can I tell you something - I didn't want to die - I even asked the Father to let the cup 
pass by - But I submitted to God's will because I love you so - I hold you firmly in My hand - 
I'll never let you go.
