Written by Sean C. Harrison (c)2011

My Lord, was it for me you came?

Despised, rejected, bearing shame

Though guiltless, guileless was thy heart,

Was it for me thou didst heaven depart?

Was it for me thou earth defiled?

Traversed for many a wearying mile

To show the greatness of thy care

The weight of sorrow’s load to share,

To preach thy kingdom close at hand

Implanting it in the heart of man?

Was it for me thy sweat turned blood?

And from thy wounded flesh that flood

Flowed to wash these sins away?

Was it for me? Oh, happy day!

Was it for me thou rose again

And made of sin’s cruel reign an end

That no more should I be enslaved?

Was it for me, Lord, all you gave?

My soul rejoices all day long

In laughter, dancing, grateful song

For clearly now this truth I see:

All that thou didst Lord, was for me.
