A gorgeous, sacred Easter hymn with music by Kevin G. Pace and text by Mary Ann W. Snowball.

YouTube video: Jesus Lives For Me, hymn

Text:
As disciples slept Jesus prayed alone,
So alone and suffering in a garden grove.
Bleeding from each pore, spilling drops of blood,
He spilled drops of crimson blood as a Savior would.

Carrying the cross, tripping on the way,
Jesus lifted each man’s sins through His pain that day.
Finally the crowd watched our Savior die.
Father’s will was manifest; Jesus did comply.

Buried in a tomb, three days ‘til He rose,
He was resurrected with scars He freely chose.
Jesus saved mankind from the chains of death,
Freeing all humanity, gifting endless breath.

Chorus:
Spilling drops of blood in Gethsemane,
And on Calvary, Jesus died for me.
Then He rose again making all men free.
Yet at times it feels as though He only lives for me.
