Behold Him Now On Yonder Tree,
The Prince Of Peace, The Heavenly King;
O What Can His Transgression Be
Such Shameful Punishment To Bring?
And Lo, A Thief Hangs On Each Side;
Who Justly Suffers For His Crime.
But Why Should Christ Be Crucified,
The One So Holy, So Divine?
It Was For Me, Yes, Even Me,
That Jesus Died On Calvary;
My Soul To Cleanse From All Its Guilt,
His Precious Blood My Savior Spilt.
O Sinner, See, For You And Me
He Freely Suffers In Our Stead;
And Lo, He Dies Upon The Tree;
Behold, He Bows His Sacred Head!
So Pure, Yet He Has Borne Our Guilt,
By Death Our Ransom He Has Paid;
It Was For Us His Blood Was Spilt;
Our Every Sin On Him Was Laid.
O Loving Savior, Take My Heart,
No Longer Can I Live From Thee!
With All Unlike Thee Now I Part;
Thy Wondrous Love Has Conquered Me.
I Yield To Thee My Little All;
Accept Me Now, Lord, As Thine Own;
I’ll Be Obedient To Thy Call
And Spend My Life For Thee Alone.
