Lyrics
Alas, alas, alas
Alas, and did my Savior bleed
And did my Sovereign die?
Did He devote that sacred head
For such a worm as I?
Was it for sins that I had done
He groaned upon the tree?
Amazing pity, grace unknown
And love beyond degree
My God, why would You shed Your blood
So pure and undefiled
To make a sinful one like me
Your chosen, precious child?
Alas, alas, alas
Well might the sun in darkness hide
And shut his glories in
When Christ, the mighty Maker, died
For men, the creature's sin
Lest might I hide my blushing face
While His dear cross appears
Dissolve my heart in thankfulness
And melt my eyes to tears
My God, why would You shed Your blood
So pure and undefiled
To make a sinful one like me
To make me Your child?
To make a sinful one like me
Your chosen precious child?
Alas, alas, alas
