He Did Give

He came to Earth to save us all

As baby Jesus born in a manger

Ready to take our sin as if His own

He realized that there was danger

Ridiculed and insulted by so many

Made to carry that cross up that hill  

Those soldiers had fire in their eyes

For it was Jesus they wanted to kill

He died that day on that wooden cross

No longer on this Earth would He live

He escaped the tomb and went to Heaven

It was for us His earthly life He did give

One day I want to see our dear Savior

Walk with Him up there on streets of gold

Knowing I must believe in Him and confess

These things I know I don’t need to be told
