Alas and did saviour 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 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 am happy all the day
But drops of grief cannot repay the debt of love i owe
Here lord i give myself away it's 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
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
