Jesus Died For You(Chords)

	        A                      E 
You may be down, you may be out 
     F#m           E     D  
With nothing to be glad about 
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 His 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
