I Know the Savior's Life was for You and Me

I know the Savior's life was for you and me
That He loves us uniquely, individually
Alone, he felt each sorrow, each pain, each sin
With agony that tortured and pressed upon Him

 
How to live as He would have me, I pray to learn
That His Light in me might grow and forever burn

I know He felt what cannot be enumerated
And bled from each pore till He was saturated
With all that was repugnant and ought not to be
He alone ransomed us and knows us completely

Oh that my love for Him might grow and grow
With gratitude that does fill and overflow

I know the Savior was lifted up for all

Upon a cross to break the effects of the fall

Alone, He suffered the wrath of God, for us

Until it was finished, perfectly, The Son, Jesus

How I wish to serve and love as He taught

And to be repentant when I am not

Oh that my love for Him might grow and grow
With gratitude that does fill and overflow

How to live as He would have me, I pray to learn
That His Light in me might grow and forever burn
