For Those Tears I Died
Verse 1
You said You’d come and share all my sorrows,
You said You’d be there for all my tomorrows.
I came so close to sending You away:
But just like You promised You came here to stay,
I just had to pray.
Chorus
And Jesus said come to the water, stand by my side;
I know you are thirsty, you won’t be denied.
I felt every teardrop when in darkness You cried;
And I strove to remind you, that for those tears I died.
Verse 2
Your goodness so great, I can’t understand.
And dear Lord I know that all this was planned.
I know You’re here now and always will be;
Your love loosed my chains and in You I’m free,
But Jesus, why me?
Verse 3
Jesus, I give You my heart and my soul.
I know that without You, I’d never be whole.
Savior, You’ve opened all the right doors,
And I thank You and praise You from Earth’s humble shores,
Take me I’m Yours.
John 14:4 NASB
And you know the way where I am going.
Psalm 56:8 NASB
You have taken account of my miseries;
Put my tears in Your bottle.
Are they not in Your book?
Romans 4:25 NASB
He who was delivered over because of our wrongdoings, and was raised because of our justification.
