Alas and did my Savior bleed?
And did my Sovereign die?

For someone 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 have done
He suffered on the tree?
Amazing pity! Grace unknown!
And love beyond degree!

The debt of love I owe:
Here Lord I give myself away
Tis all that I can do!
