It is my duty to serve my Lord in faith.

This congregation in joy is overflowing,
Because the Lord has given us His great love;
And He is helping us to follow His pathway,
So we may all see Him that day at heaven's mansions.

374. I GAVE MY LIFE FOR THEE

Ml 1/IDA DI POR Tl
Rom 5.6 REPREHEN'SrONllii'5'.'liE'XHORTATION
I gave my life for thee, my precious blood I shed,
That thou might'st ransomed be, and risen from the dead;
//1 gave, I gave my life for thee,
What hast thou given for me?//
2
My Father's home of light, my rainbow-circled throne,
I left for earthly night, for wand'rings sad and lone;
//I left, I left it all for thee,
Hast thou left all for me?//
3
I suffered much for thee, more than thy tongue can tell,
Of bitt'rest agony, to rescue thee from hell;
//I've borne, I've borne it all for thee,
What hast thou borne for me?//
4
And I have brought to thee, down from my home above,
Salvation full and free, my pardon and my love;
//1 bring, I bring rich gifts to thee,
What hast thou brought for me?//

Eph 2.1 GRAiliUDl:1 Jil"f.'2'f'PERSE\JrnANCE
My life was cruel when I wandered this world,
My soul was always lost and without hope;
But the great love of Jesus is eternal,
