At The Cross

4 verses · With chorus

Verse 1

Alas, and did my Saviour bleed? And did my Sovereign die? Would He devote that sacred head For such a worm as I?

Chorus

At the cross, at the cross where I first saw the light, And the burden of my heart rolled away (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 have 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

But drops of grief can ne'er repay The debt of love I owe: Here, Lord, I gave myself away, 'Tis all that I can do!
