Alas and did my Savior bleed And did my sovereign die? Would He devote that sacred head For such a worm as I? Was it for crimes that I have done He groaned upon the tree Amazing pity, grace unknown And love beyond degree 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'm happy all the day Well might the sun in darkness hide And shut His glories in When Christ the mighty maker died For man the creature's sin 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'm 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'm happy all the day! Thus might I hide my blushing face While His dear cross appears Dissolve my heart in thankfulness And melt my eyes to tears
