At the Cross

Alas and did my savior bleed
And did my Sov’reign die?
Would he devote that sacred head
for such a worm 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 had 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 am happy all the day.
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
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.
It was there by faith I received my sight,
And now I am happy all the day.
