E N D
For Those Tears I Died 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 there to stay;I just had to pray!
And Jesus said, “Come to the water, stand by My side,I know you are thirsty,you won’t be denied;I felt ev’ry teardrop when in darkness you cried,And I strove to remind you thatfor those tears I died.”
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?
And Jesus said, “Come to the water, stand by My side,I know you are thirsty,you won’t be denied;I felt ev’ry teardrop when in darkness you cried,And I strove to remind you thatfor those tears I died.”
Jesus, I give You my heart and my soul,I know that without God I’d never be whole;Savior, You opened all the right doors,And I thank You and praise You from earth’s humbleshores; Take me, I’m Yours.
And Jesus said, “Come to the water, stand by My side,I know you are thirsty,you won’t be denied;I felt ev’ry teardrop when in darkness you cried,And I strove to remind you thatfor those tears I died.”
