163- At the Cross
Jesus Christ: Sufferings and Death
1
- Alas, and did my Savior bleed?
- And did my Sovereign die?
- Would He devote that sacred head
- For someone such as I?
Refrain
- 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!
2
- Was it for crimes that I have done,
- He suffered on the tree?
- Amazing pity! Grace unknown!
- And love beyond degree!
3
- 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!
