Lyrics
Verse 1
Alas and did my Savior bleed
and did my Sovereign die
would He devote that sacred head
for such a one as I
Verse 2
was it for crimes that I have done
He groaned upon the tree,
amazing pity, grace, unknown,
and love beyond degree
Verse 3
well might the sun and darkness hide
and shut His glories in
when Christ the mighty Maker died
for man, the creature's sin.
Verse 4
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
Chorus
at the cross, at the cross
where I first saw the light
and the burden of my heart rolled away.
It was there by faith. I received my sight
and now I am happy all the day.
