Hindi Lyrics (हिंदी पाठ)

मुखड़ा (Chorus):
प्रेम तेरा वो कर गया जो किसी ने न किया – 2
खून अपना बहाकर मुझे जिन्दगी दिया – 2

अंतरा 1 (Stanza 1):
मुझमें तूने क्या देखा, पा मसीह – 2
उस प्यार के लायक मैं तो नहीं – 2
बेकार, बेईमान पल थी जिन्दगी, सजा का – 2
बदला से झूम उठी

अंतरा 2 (Stanza 2):
कोई भी खुशी मुझ में न थी – 2
कोई भी चाहत भी न थी – 2
खाली सूनी सी जिन्दगी खुशियों का – 2
कल से खिल उठी

अंतरा 3 (Stanza 3):
जब से मैंने तुझको जाना मसीह – 2
तब से अपना माना मसीह – 2
रौशनी सुकून की जिन्दगी आशा की – 2
मौत से मुझे उठी

Explanation & Author Details

Author & Writer:

This song is a Traditional Hindi Gospel Worship Song. While it is widely performed by artists like Yogesh Masih and featured in the “Yeshu Ke Geet” collections, it serves as a congregational hymn in North Indian churches to celebrate the atonement.

Theology:

• Unconditional Love (Grace): The song emphasizes that Christ’s love is not based on our merit (“Pyar ke layak main to nahin”).
• The Substitutionary Sacrifice: The chorus highlights the “Blood of Christ” as the price paid for our life.
• Transformation: It contrasts a past of “worthlessness” (Bekar) and “punishment” (Saja) with a present of “peace” (Sukoon) and “hope” (Aasha). It beautifully describes a life blooming like a flower from a previously empty state.
