For Love

For love He suffered, for love He died
He rose again and lives on high

New life He gives to all who ask
So at the cross I lay my mask
No more to hide no more regret
For in my Lord my needs are met

So by His side is where I’ll be
I in Him and He in me

My sinful past may raise its head
But safe in Him I will be lead
When He forgives it is complete
No need to worry or repeat

So free is where I choose to stay
Let all my burdens fall away


I choose to trust, I choose to lean
On His strong arms and walking clean
His love’s amazing and so true
For love is why He died for you

Lay down your cares, Reach out to Him
Repent today, be free from sin
The price is paid, the debt is clear
He rose again to draw us near

So by His side is where I’ll be
I in Him and He in me

Like Mary Magdalene, His friend
I bow my heart, my knee I bend
To God the Father, God the Son
Holy Spirit three in one
