LYRICS:
Stanza 1
I gave My life for thee, My precious blood I shed,
That thou might'st ransom be, And quickened from the dead;
I gave, I gave My life for thee; What hast thou giv'n for Me?
I gave, I gave My life for thee: What hast thou giv'n for Me?

Stanza 2
My Father's house of light, My glory-circled throne,
I left for earthly night, For wand'rings sad and lone;
I left, I left it all for thee: Hast thou left aught for Me?
I left, I left it all for thee: Hast thou left aught for Me?

Stanza 3
I suffered much for thee, More than thy tongue can tell,
Of bitt'rest agony, To rescue thee from hell; I've borne,
I've borne it all for thee: What hast thou borne for Me?
I've borne, I've borne it all for thee: What hast thou borne for Me?

Stanza 4
And I have bro't to thee, Down from My home above,
Salvation full and free, My pardon and My love;
I bring, I bring rich gifts to thee; What hast thou bro't for Me?
I bring, I bring rich gifts to thee: What hast thou bro't for Me?

SCRIPTURE & THEMES:
This hymn embodies a profound reflection on the sacrificial love of Jesus Christ, who willingly gave His life to redeem humanity from sin and death. It emphasizes the incomparable gift of salvation and challenges believers to consider their response to this divine sacrifice.

The following Bible verses resonate with the themes of sacrificial love and redemption found in this hymn:

(1) John 3:16 (KJV): "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life."
This verse highlights the selfless love of God in offering His Son as a sacrifice for the salvation of humanity, mirroring the central message of the hymn.

(2) Galatians 2:20 (KJV): "I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me."
This verse underscores the transformative power of Christ's sacrifice, inspiring believers to live in gratitude and devotion, recognizing that their lives have been bought with a price.

(3) Ephesians 5:2 (KJV): "And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweetsmelling savour."
This verse emphasizes the example of Christ's sacrificial love as the model for believers to follow in their own lives, reflecting the hymn's call to consider what they have given in response to Christ's ultimate sacrifice.

The hymn "I Gave My Life For Thee" encapsulates the essence of these verses by inviting believers to contemplate the depth of Christ's love and respond with lives of dedication and service.
