Lyrics: 1 Weary and wandering and sunken in sin, Vile as a sinner could be, Jesus beheld and to Bethlehem came, Left His bright throne for me, Left His bright throne for me. Refrain: All for me, all for me? Lord, was it all for me? From the throne to the manger, From there to the cross, Yes, it was all for me. 2 Footsore and weary He toiled on the way, Even to Gethsemane; Oft I have met Him and heard His sweet voice, Praying for me, for me, Praying for me, for me. [Refrain] 3 Still I rejected your Savior and mine, Till I beheld on the tree, Suffering, dying, my Savior and yours, Dying for you and me, Dying for you and me.

C. Austin Miles

1868 - 1946 Person Name: C. A. M. Author of "All for Me" in Songs of Christian Service Charles Austin Miles USA 1868-1946. Born at Lakehurst, NJ, he attended the Philadelphia College of Pharmacy and the University of PA. He became a pharmacist. He married Bertha H Haagen, and they had two sons: Charles and Russell. In 1892 he abandoned his pharmacy career and began writing gospel songs. At first he furnished compositions to the Hall-Mack Publishing Company, but soon became editor and manager, where he worked for 37 years. He felt he was serving God better in the gospel song writing business, than as a pharmacist. He published the following song books: “New songs of the gospel” (1900), “The service of praise” (1900), “The voice of praise” (1904), “The tribute of song” (1904), “New songs of the gospel #2” (1905), “Songs of service” (1910), “Ideal Sunday school hymns” (1912). He wrote and/or composed 400+ hymns. He died in Philadelphia, PA. John Perry
