verse 1
Alas! And did my Savior bleed?
And did my Sovereign die?
Would He devote that sacred head
For sinners 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!

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
Thus might I hide my blushing face
While Calv’ry’s cross appears,
Dissolve my heart in thankfulness
And melt mine eyes to tears.

verse 5
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!
