For The World Tab

by Laura Story


Verse 1:

                                         
Jesus Lord and King, you came to wash the feet

                                     
of sinners such as me, and for the world

                                               
You left your throne on high to calm creation's cry

                                           
To suffer and to die for the world, for the world



Chorus:

                         
(We cry) Holy Jesus, lowly Jesus

                                        
Lamb that was slain for the world, for the world


Verse 2:

                                               
You bled from pierced side for every tongue and tribe,

                                   
With arms held open wide for the world

                                                     
With one last breath to breathe, your final prayer and plea

                                            
Was pardon for me, and for the world, for the world



Verse 3:

                                           
Oh, to know your heart; you bid me now to start

                                           
by asking on my knees for the world, for the world
