Thou Lamb of God, Who died for me.
O may I ever faithful be,
My Savior and my God!
I'll live for Him who died for me;
How happy then my soul shall be!
I'll live for Him Who died for me,
My Savior and my God!
2. I now believe Thou dost receive,
For Thou hast died that I may live;
And now henceforth I'll trust in Thee,
My Savior and my God!
I'll live for Him who died for me;
How happy then my soul shall be!
I'll live for Him Who died for me,
My Savior and my God!
3. O Thou, who died on Calvary
To save my soul and make me free,
I'll consecrate my life to Thee,
My Savior and my God!
I'll live for Him who died for me;
How happy then my soul shall be!
I'll live for Him Who died for me,
My Savior and my God! Amen.
O may I ever faithful be,
My Savior and my God!
I'll live for Him who died for me;
How happy then my soul shall be!
I'll live for Him Who died for me,
My Savior and my God!
2. I now believe Thou dost receive,
For Thou hast died that I may live;
And now henceforth I'll trust in Thee,
My Savior and my God!
I'll live for Him who died for me;
How happy then my soul shall be!
I'll live for Him Who died for me,
My Savior and my God!
3. O Thou, who died on Calvary
To save my soul and make me free,
I'll consecrate my life to Thee,
My Savior and my God!
I'll live for Him who died for me;
How happy then my soul shall be!
I'll live for Him Who died for me,
My Savior and my God! Amen.
Scripture; Galatians 2:20; Romans 12:1; 2 Corinthians 5:14-15;
"My Life, My Love I Give to Thee" is a heartfelt Christian hymn written and composed by Ralph E. Hudson in the late 19th century. Hudson, a Methodist minister and music teacher, was active during a time of widespread revivalism in America when gospel music was becoming a powerful tool for personal and public expressions of faith. This hymn reflects a deep sense of gratitude and personal devotion to Jesus Christ, emphasizing a life wholly surrendered in response to His sacrificial death. The lyrics declare a commitment to live for Christ, encapsulated in the refrain, “I’ll live for Him who died for me,” which echoes the biblical call to live a life transformed by grace. Rooted in evangelical theology, the song speaks of love, obedience, and service to Jesus as the only fitting response to His redeeming love. Over time, it became a staple in many Protestant hymnals and was frequently sung during revival meetings, especially during altar calls. Its enduring popularity comes from its simple yet powerful message of consecration and its ability to move the hearts of worshippers toward a deeper commitment to their faith
