the life you gave
dear Lord
as i think of the empty cross
and the empty grave
i am thankful for the life you gave
to make us complete
to make us whole
for me you gave your all
in my place you took the fall
a sacrifice so that we may live
a life of abundance that you give
even through our pains and sufferings
you are still there
you make us strong
you make us brave
thank you for
the life that you gave.
New International Version
The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full
Jesus did not just talk about love, He demonstrated His mercy and compassion by suffering and surrendering His life so that we could live.
Amen
