Alas! And Did My Saviour Bleed!
And Did My Saviour Die?
Would He Devote That Sacred Head
For Such A Worm As I.
Was It For Crimes That I Had Done,
He Groaned Upon The Tree?
Amazing Pity! Grace Unknown!
And Love Beyond Degree!
Well Might The Sun In Darkness Hide,
And Shut His Glories In;
When Christ The Mighty Maker Died
For Man The Creature’s Sin.
Thus Might I Hide My Blushing Face,
While His Dear Cross Appears;
Dissolve My Heart In Thankfulness,
And Melt Mine Eyes In Tears.
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.
