Introduction:
G C G C G D
Alas! and did my Savior bleed and did my Sovereign die?
G Am D G
Would He devote that sacred head for sinners such as I?
G D
At the cross, at the cross where I first saw the light,
D7 G
And the burden of my heart rolled away,
C G
It was there by faith I received my sight,
Am D7 G
And now I am happy all the day!
G C G C G D
Was it for crimes that I had done he groaned upon the tree?
G Am D G
Amazing pity! grace unknown! And love beyond degree!
G C G C G D
But drops of grief can ne'er repay the debt of love I owe
G Am D G
Here, Lord, I give my self away 'tis all that I can do.
