| A | E | |
| You may be down, you ma | y be out |
| F#m | E | D | |
| With | nothing to be | glad a | bout |
| 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 |
| F#m | 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 be 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 H | is 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 |
| 'Cause 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 |
| END SOLO |
