Our Savior’s Atonement

Reverently

1. The Lord and Savior died for me

On the cross of Calvary

And suffered for me willingly

In the Garden of Gethsemane.

Jesus paid for ev’ry wrong;

That’s why He was sent.

He suffered pain the whole night long

so we could all repent.

My Savior sacrificed,

I know He paid the price,

and I know He did it willingly for me

in the lonely night of Gethsemane.

I think of His atonement.

I think about His pain.

Because my Savior died for me,

I know I’ll live again.
