Words and Music by Marvin P. Dalton
He gave His life-blood for even me
Once I was straying in sin's dark valley
No hope within could I see
But they searched through Heaven and found a Savior
To save a poor, lost soul like me
CHORUS
O what a Savior!
O hallelujah!
His heart was broken on Calvary
His hands were nail-scarred
His side was riven
He gave His life-blood for even me
Death's chilly waters I'll soon be crossing
But His hand will lead me safe o'er
Then I'll join the chorus in that great City
And I'll sing up there forever and ever more
