Jesus, my Savior, to Bethlehem came,
|
|
| 1. | Jesus, my Savior, to Bethlehem came, |
| | Laid in a manger to sorrow and shame; |
| | O it was wonderful, blest be His name, |
| | Seeking for me, for me: |
| | Seeking for me, for me, |
| | Seeking for me, for me; |
| | O it was wonderful, blest be His name, |
| | Seeking for me, for me. |
| 2. | Jesus, my Savior, on Calvary's tree |
| | Paid the great debt, and my soul He set |
| | free; |
| | O it was wonderful-how could it be? |
| | Dying for me, for me! |
| | Dying for me, for me, |
| | Dying for me, for me; |
| | O it was wonderful-how could it be? |
| | Dying for me, for me! |
| 3. | Jesus, my Savior, the same as of old, |
| | While I was wand'ring in darkness and |
| | cold, |
| | Gently and long did He plead with my |
| | soul, |
| | Calling for me, for me! |
| | Calling for me, for me, |
| | Calling for me, for me; |
| | Gently and long did He plead with my |
| | soul, |
| | Calling for me, for me! |
| 4. | Jesus, my Savior, shall come from on |
| | high. |
| | Sweet is the promise as weary years |
| | fly: |
| | O I shall see Him descend from the |
| | sky, |
| | Coming for me, for me! |
| | Coming for me, for me, |
| | Coming for me, for me; |
| | O I shall see Him descend from the |
| | sky, |
| | Coming for me, for me! |
