Was it for me, the nails, the spear, The cruel thorns, the mocking jeer, That rugged cross, 'twixt earth and sky- Was it for me He came to die? Refrain He loved me so! He loved me so! Dark Calvary He chose to know, To vanquish sin and death and woe; 'Twas all because He loved me so. Was it for me, that opened tomb, Dispelling fear and death and gloom? So vast a truth proclaims to me That I through Him can victor be. Refrain Yes, all for me-the cross, the grave, A risen Lord with power to save! My joyful heart is filled with praise As songs of happiness I raise. Refrain
