CHORUS

COMMENTARY:
This was the last song that I wrote while I was the worship leader in Modesto, California. The knowledge of my own sinfulness in the light of God's glory is so evident. Living in a fallen world and a society that seems to continue to drift away from God, we pick up a lot of dirt on a daily basis. I believe that a continual cleansing of our sin is a must. This is a song that cries out for God's forgiveness from sin; a song that cries out for a heart transplant. "Make Me Clean" is the first song on the album titled, "Make Me Clean." We released this album in Spring of 2003. It was recorded ad produced by my good friend Jonathan Johnson at The Orange Juice Factory in Fremont, California.

You Gave Your Life For Me

YOU GAVE YOUR LIFE FOR ME
Christian Jung and Leah Jung
(c) 1996

CHORUS
E - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - A - - B - - - - - - - - - - - - - E
You gave Your life for me so I give my life to You
C#m - - - - - - - F#m - - B - - - - - - - - - E

A reflection of You, Lord, for the whole world to see

COMMENTARY:
My wife and I were Bible College students in Rancho Palos Verdes, California when we sat down together and wrote this very simple chorus. In this song comes the thought that if Jesus gave His life for us, the very least we can do is give our life for Him. Our heart is that Christ will continue to mold and make us into the people He has designed us to be and that we would reflect His glory to the world around us.

COMMENTARY:

I was 20 years old and on my second short-term missions trip, this time to Croatia when I wrote this song, my first ever original worship song. It is ironic that the first song that came from my heart was about one of the clsest things to my heart, the great commission. It is very simple and for the most part, straight out of Scripture. My brother, Phil and I recorded this song in 1995. I was able to share this song at Shoreline Christian Fellowship in San Leandro, California, where my dad was the pastor after I returned from my missions trip. I was able to share this song a few years ago as well at Calavary Chapel in Tigard, Oregon when one of our friends was holding a fund-raiser for her missions trip to Nigeria.
