(1) Alas, and did my Savior bleed and did my Sovereign die?
Would He devote that sacred head for sinners such 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.
(2) Was it for crimes that I have done He groaned upon the tree?
Amazing pity, grace unknown, and love beyond degree!
(Chorus)
(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.
(Chorus)
