WHY I SERVE HIM, JESUS

I WANT MY LORD TO USE ME,
I WILL NOT FEEL A SHAME,
TO TELL THE WORLD OF HIS LOVE,
AND THE REASON WHY HE CAME.

HE DIED FOR ME SO I MIGHT LIVE,
SOME DAY IN ETERNITY,
HE BORE THE STRIPES BELONGED TO ME,
THEN DIED WITH DIGNITY.

THIS PERFECT MAN TOOK ALL THE BLAME,
TO SAVE OUR SOULS FROM SIN,
IF THATS NOT ENOUGH TO LOVE HIM BACK,
WHAT MORE WOULD YOU ASK OF HIM?

THEY MADE HIM DRAG HIS CROSS ALONE,
THEY MOCKED HIM ON HIS WAY,
MY HEART GETS HEAVY WITH DESPAIR,
WHEN I THINK OF THAT PAINFUL DAY.

JESUS WOULD NOT WANT ME SAD,
HE WAS NOT AFRAID TO DIE,
THOUSANDS OF ANGELS AWAITED HIM,
AS HIS SPIRIT ASCENDED ON HIGH.

SOMEDAY SOON HE'S COMING BACK,
IN GLORIOUS ROBES OF WHITE,
AND I'LL BE WAITING AND READY TO GO,
IF IT BE MORNING, NOON OR NIGHT.

I LOVE HIM TONIGHT WITH ALL MY HEART.
I WILL SING AND PRAISE HIS NAME,
AND STAND ON THE PROMISE HE GAVE ME,
THAT HE WILL RETURN AGAIN.

YOU TOO CAN COME DEAR SINNER FRIEND,
SALVATION IS FREE TO ALL,
BUT DON'T DELAY COME NOW TODAY,
AND HEED AS HE CALLS.
