"STILL WOULD'VE DIED FOR YOU"

Verse 1
As a man, I came to Earth alone,
With no place, nowhere to call My home.
The King of all kings, My Palace was On High,
But I chose to come & to give you My life.

[Repeat Intro Chord Progression]

Verse 2
I bore the cross, the mocking & the pain
For a love too deep that words cannot explain.
It wasn’t for the recognition, for the crowds.
I did it for you, & I’d still do it now.

Chorus
I still would’ve died for you, if you were the only one.
I still would’ve cried for you, if you were the only one.
I still would’ve bled for you, if you were the only one,
And rose from the dead, if you were the only one.

Verse 3
The price I paid to give to you Heaven,
To share My dre-ams, my treasures with you,
Was all that I could give-My everything-
To fill that empty space in My heart for you.

Repeat Chorus

Bridge
I felt the pain of rejection,
I knew the taste of blood.
I cried those lonely nights & longed for comfort in My Father’s arms.
For you & you alone, I lived & died & loved!!

Repeat Chorus
