Verse 1
Alas and did my Savior bleed And did my Sovereign die Would He devote that sacred head For such a worm as I
Verse 2
Was it for crimes that I had 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
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
