You gave me life When I thought about ending my life To give this life to me You lost Your life on Calvary You gave me care When I thought nobody cared about me To give this care to me You reached out with scarred hands You gave me love When I was tortured by hatred and bitterness To give this love to me You bled and died on the cross You gave me light When I could only see darkness in this world To give this light to me You left the Father of lights When You gave me everything You asked for nothing from me When You held out Your hands I had nothing on my empty palms Lord please take all I am Since this is the only thing I can give You And I know You will make ashes beautiful |
