Alas
and did my
Savior bleed
And did my
Sovereign die
Would He
devote that sacred head
For sinners such as I
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
Was it for
crimes that
I had done
He groaned
upon the tree
Amazing pity
grace unknown
And love
beyond degree
Oh at the cross
at the cross
where I first
saw the light
and the burdens
of my heart
rolled away
It was there
by faith
I received my sight
And now
I am happy
all the day
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
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
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
