Verse 1
Alas and did my Savior bleed
And did my Sov’reign die
Would He devote that sacred head
For sinners such as I
Chorus 1
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
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 in darkness hide
And shut His glories in
When Christ the mighty Maker died
For man the creature’s sin
Verse 4
Thus might I hide my blushing face
While Calvary’s cross appears
Dissolve my heart in thankfulness
And melt mine eyes to tears
Verse 5
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
