Alas! And Did My Savior Bleed
1. Alas! and did my Savior bleed,
And did my Sovereign die!
Would He devote that sacred head
For sinners, such as I?
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!
2. Was it for crimes that I have done,
He groaned upon the tree?
Amazing pity! Grace unknown!
And love beyond degree!
[Chorus]
3. Well, might the sun in darkness hide
And shut its glories in,
When God, the mighty maker, died
For His own creature's sin.
[Chorus]
4. Thus, might I hide my blushing face
While His dear cross appears;
Dissolve my heart in thankfulness,
And melt mine eyes to tears.
[Chorus]
5. But drops of tears can never repay
The debt of love I owe.
Here, Lord, I give myself away;
'Tis all that I can do.
[Chorus]
