Thy life was given

- Thy life was given for me,
- Thy blood, O Lord, was shed,
- that I might ransomed be,
- and quickened from the dead:
- Thy life, Thy life was given for me;
- what have I given for Thee?
- Thy Father's home of light,
- Thy rainbow-circled throne,
- were left for earthly night,
- for wanderings sad and lone;
- yea, all, yea, all was left for me;
- have I left aught for Thee?
- Thou, Lord, hast borne for me
- more than my tongue can tell
- of bitterest agony,
- to rescue me from hell;
- Thou sufferedst all for me, for me;
- what have I borne for Thee?
- Oh, let my life be given,
- my years for Thee be spent;
- world-fetters all be riven,
- and joy with suffering blent.
- To Thee, to Thee my all I bring,
- my Saviour and my King!
