Jesus has Died for Me

Author: A. H. A. Appears in 4 hymnals First Line: O to be there, where the songs of glory Lyrics: 1 O to be there, where the songs of glory Float o'er the waves of the bright crystal sea; This the refrain of the wondrous story, "Jesus has died for me." While still I linger in this world below, Waiting till homeward I am called to go, I will repeat o'er and o'er the story, "Jesus has died for me. 2 O for a voice to proclaim the message In ev'ry land and the isles of the sea, "God's only Son is the Friend of sinners, Jesus has died for me." 'Tis but a little that my hands can do For this dear loving One so kind and true, But I can tell to the world the story, "Jesus has died for me." 3 Now that I've tasted thy love, O Jesus, Taken my cross and am following thee, Help me to tell this great truth to others, "Jesus has died for me." O that the world would seek the Father's face, Trust in his mercy and forgiving grace; Then how all hearts would rejoice in singing, "Jesus has died for me." 4 O for a heart that will always love him, Trusting his promise wherever I be; Bearing in mind this sweet truth so precious, "Jesus has died for me." Washed in the blood of Jesus Christ my King, Thro' endless ages I this song shall sing, "Glory to God, everlasting glory, Jesus has died for me."
