 1 

Jesus, my Savior, to Bethlehem came,

Laid in a manger to sorrow and shame;

O it was wonderful, blest be His name,

Seeking for me, for me:

 

Seeking for me, for me,

Seeking for me, for me;

O it was wonderful, blest be His name,

Seeking for me, for me.

 
 2 

Jesus, my Savior, on Calvary's tree

Paid the great debt, and my soul He set free;

O it was wonderful — how could it be?

Dying for me, for me!

 

Dying for me, for me,

Dying for me, for me;

O it was wonderful — how could it be?

Dying for me, for me!

 
 3 

Jesus, my Savior, the same as of old,

While I was wand'ring in darkness and cold,

Gently and long did He plead with my soul,

Calling for me, for me!

 

Calling for me, for me,

Calling for me, for me;

Gently and long did He plead with my soul,

Calling for me, for me!

 
 4 

Jesus, my Savior, shall come from on high.

Sweet is the promise as weary years fly:

O I shall see Him descend from the sky,

Coming for me, for me!

 

Coming for me, for me,

Coming for me, for me;

O I shall see Him descend from the sky,

Coming for me, for me!
