Jesus Gave His Life For Me

JESUS PAID THE PRICE FOR ME
WHEN HE DIED ON CALVARY
JESUS GAVE HIS LIFE FOR ME
AND I AM SO GLAD HE DID

I WAS A WRETCH UNDONE
LET HE STILL CALLS ME HIS SON

JESUS PAID THE PRICE FOR ME 
SO THAT I MAY LIVE ETERNALLY
WHEN HE DIDE ON CALVARY
JESUS LAID DOWN TEMPARALY

SO THAT I MAY BE REDEEMED YOU SEE
I KNOW THAT 'I'M JUST FLESH
JESUS GAVE HIS LIFE FOR ME, ME, ME

I NKOW THAT I'M JUST FLESH
AND THAT I'M IN SUCH A BAD MESS
BUT I'VE PASS THE TEST, PASS THE TEST
I MUST PROGRESS, UNLESS I REGRESS
SO PLEASE LORD HELP ME (HELP US ALL LORD OUT OF THIS CRUD, THIS CROOKED MESS
SO THAT I MAY LIVE FOREVER IN HEAVEN
I THANK GOD THAT HE ALLOWED
JESUS TO GIVE UP HIS LIFE FOR ME
AND I AM SO GLAD HE DID
JESUS GAVE HIS LIFE FOR ME
