At the Cross Words by Isaac Watts; chorus, Ralph E. Hudson Music by Ralph E. Hudson Words and Music public domain 255
Alas, and did my Savior bleedAnd did my Sov’reign dieWould He devote that sacred headFor sinners such as I
At the cross, at the crosswhere I first saw the lightAnd the burdenof my heart rolled away
It was there by faithI received my sightAnd now I am happy all the day
Was it for crimes that I had doneHe groaned upon the treeAmazing pity, grace unknownAnd love beyond degree
At the cross, at the crosswhere I first saw the lightAnd the burdenof my heart rolled away
It was there by faithI received my sightAnd now I am happy all the day
Well might the sun in darkness hideAnd shut his glories inWhen Christ, the mighty Maker diedFor man, the creature’s sin
At the cross, at the crosswhere I first saw the lightAnd the burdenof my heart rolled away
It was there by faithI received my sightAnd now I am happy all the day
Thus might I hide my blushing faceWhile Calv’ry’s cross appearsDissolve my heart in thankfulnessAnd melt mine eyes to tears
At the cross, at the crosswhere I first saw the lightAnd the burdenof my heart rolled away
It was there by faithI received my sightAnd now I am happy all the day
But drops of grief can ne’er repayThe debt of love I oweHere, Lord, I give myself away’Tis all that I can do
At the cross, at the crosswhere I first saw the lightAnd the burdenof my heart rolled away
It was there by faithI received my sightAnd now I am happy all the day
