<div class="lyrics">
<p>Alas! and did my Savior bleed<br>
And did my Sovereign die?<br>
Would He devote that sacred head<br>
For sinners such as I?<br>
[<em>originally,</em> For such a worm as I?]</p>
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
<p class="refrain">At the cross, at the cross where I first saw the light,<br>
And the burden of my heart rolled away,<br>
It was there by faith I received my sight,<br>
And now I am happy all the day!</p>
<p>Thy body slain, sweet Jesus, Thine,<br>
And bathed in its own blood;<br>
While all exposed to wrath divine,<br>
The glorious Sufferer stood.</p>
<p>Was it for crimes that I had done<br>
He groaned upon the tree?<br>
Amazing pity! grace unknown!<br>
And love beyond degree!</p>
<p>Well might the sun in darkness hide<br>
And shut his glories in,<br>
When Christ, the mighty Maker died,<br>
For man the creature&#8217;s sin.</p>
<p>Thus might I hide my blushing face<br>
While His dear cross appears,<br>
Dissolve my heart in thankfulness,<br>
And melt my eyes to tears.</p>
<p>But drops of grief can ne&#8217;er repay<br>
The debt of love I owe:<br>
Here, Lord, I give my self away<br>
&#8217;Tis all that I can do.</p>
