Alas! And Did My Savior Bleed? (Live)

Alas! and did my Savior bleed

And did my Sov'reign die?

Would He devote that sacred head

For such a worm as I?

Was it for crimes that I had done

He groaned upon the tree?

Amazing pity! grace unknown!

And love beyond degree!

Alas! and did my Savior bleed

And did my Sov'reign die?

Would He devote that sacred head

For such a worm as I?

Was it for crimes that I had done

He groaned upon the tree?

Amazing pity! grace unknown!

And love beyond degree!

Well might the sun in darkness hide

And shut his glories in,

When Christ, the mighty Maker died,

For man the creature's sin.

Thus might I hide my blushing face

While His dear cross appears,

Dissolve my heart in thankfulness,

And melt my eyes to tears.

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.

Alas! and did my Savior bleed

And did my Sov'reign die?

Amazing pity! grace unknown!

And love beyond degree!

Yes it's love beyond degree!
