Who Am I?

Representative Text

1 When I think of how He came so far from glory,
Came and dwelt among the lowly, such as I,
To suffer shame and such disgrace,
On Mount Calvary took my place,
Then I ask myself the question
Who am I?

Refrain:
Who am I that a King would bleed and die for,
Who am I that He would pray, not my will, Thine, Lord,
The answer I may never know,
Why he ever loved me so,
That to an old rugged cross He would go,
For who am I?

2 When I'm reminded of His words I'll leave thee never,
Just be true, I'll give to you a life forever,
I wonder what I could have done,
To deserve God's only Son,
To fight my battles until they're won,
For whom am I? [Refrain]
