Author: Rev. F. L. Snyder Hymnal: Songs of Love and Praise No. 4 #81 (1897) First Line: The Saviour left his home above Refrain First Line: That’s what he did for me Lyrics: 1 The Saviour left his home above
To die upon the tree,
That he might ransom this poor soul,
That’s what he did for me.
Refrain:
That’s what he did for me,
That’s what he did for me;
He died upon the cruel cross,
That’s what he did for me.
2 When penitent I came to him,
He gladly set me free
From sin and guilt and all my fears,
That’s what he did for me. [Refrain]
3 When wind and storms beat heavily
Upon my bark at sea,
He sent deliv’rance from on high,
That’s what he did for me. [Refrain]
4 At last he’ll take me to the sky
His smiling face to see,
And then I’ll sing forevermore,
“That’s what he did for me.” [Refrain] Tune Title: [The Saviour left his home above]
That's what He Did for Me
