Songs Of Victory

For Those Tears I Died

You said You'd come

And share all my sorrows,
You said You'd be there

For all my tomorrows;
I came so close

To sending You away,
But just like You promised

You came there to stay;
I just had to pray!

And Jesus said,

"Come to the water,

Stand by My side,
I know you are thirsty,

You won't be denied;
I felt every teardrop

When in darkness you cried,
And I strove to remind you

That for those tears I died."

Your goodness so great

I can't understand,
And, dear Lord,

I know that all this was planned;
I know You're here now,

And always will be,
Your love loosed my chains

And in You I'm free;
But Jesus, why me?

And Jesus said,

"Come to the water,

Stand by My side,
I know you are thirsty,

You won't be denied;
I felt every teardrop

When in darkness you cried,
And I strove to remind you

That for those tears I died."

Jesus, I give You

My heart and my soul,
I know that without God

I'd never be whole;
Savior, You opened

All the right doors,
And I thank You

And praise You

From earth's humble shores;
Take me, I'm Yours.

And Jesus said,

"Come to the water,

Stand by My side,
I know you are thirsty,

You won't be denied;
I felt every teardrop

When in darkness you cried,
And I strove to remind you

That for those tears I died."
