INTRO SOLO
A E You may be down, you may be out Fm E D
With nothing to be glad about A E
But you can stand right up and shout D E
`Cause Jesus died for you
A E
You may think that you can`t cope
Fm E D
You may be drunk or hooked on dope
A E
Believe me brother, you`ve still got hope
D A
`Cause Jesus died for you
Maybe you ain`t got a dime
You`re standing in the welfare line
Or maybe you`re in prison doin your time
But Jesus died for you
Satan may have you in retreat
But you won`t go down in defeat
`Cause you can sittin in the mercy seat
`Cause Jesus died for you
FIRST CHORUS
E D A
He died for you - to complete salvation`s plan
E D A
He died for you - He`s got nail scars in His hands E A C#m
He bore the cross - to sanctify the lost B
All you`ve got to do is believe it, E
Get down on your knees and receive it!
You may think you`re too far gone
You`ve sinned so bad you can`t atone
But bow your head and come on home
`Cause Jesus died for you
SHORT SOLO
This ol` world keeps falling apart
But you don`t have to let it break your heart
You can make a brand new start
`Cause Jesus died for you
Now Satan is a mighty foe
But just stand firm because you know
You`ve got a better place to go
`Cause Jesus died for you
When there`s trouble in the wind
Or when you face the bitter end
You can start all over again
`Cause Jesus died for you
You can face death with a smile
Laugh at all your troubles and trials
Never have to walk another lonely mile
Jesus died for you!
SECOND CHORUS
He died for you - to break the devil`s hold
He died for you - to redeem your mortal soul
Don`t be afraid - `Cause you debt has done been paid
You just come and do your best -- The Holy Spirit`s gonna do the rest!
SOLO
REPEAT FIRST CHORUS
Makes no difference how wrong you`ve been
How heavy is your load of sin
The door`s still open come on in
`Cause Jesus died for you
Now you may think you`re too far gone
You`ve sinned so bad you can`t atone
But bow your head and come on home
`Cause Jesus died for you D
A Jesus died for you D
A Jesus died for you
