lyrics

Alas, and did my Savior bleed?
And did my Sov'reign die?
Would He devote that sacred head

For such a worm as I?



Thy body slain, sweet Jesus, Thine,
And bathed in its own blood…
While the firm mark of wrath divine,

His Soul in anguish stood.

Was it for crimes that I have done,

He groaned upon the tree?

Amazing pity! grace unknown!

And love beyond degree!



Well might the sun in darkness hide,

And shut his glories in,

When Christ, the mighty Maker, died

For man, the creature's sin.

Thus might I hide my blushing face

While His dear cross appears,

Dissolve my heart in thankfulness,

And melt my eyes to tears.


But drops of grief can ne'er repay

The debt of love I owe;

Here, Lord, I give myself away—

'Tis all that I can do!
