Behold The Saviour Of Mankind
Nailed To The Shameful Tree
How Vast The Love That Him Inclined
To Bleed And Die For Thee !

Hark, How He Groans, While Nature Shakes,
And Earth’s Strong Pillars Bend
The Temple’s Vail In Sunder Breaks,
The Solid Marbles Rend.

‘Tis Done ! The Precious Ransom’s Paid;
Receive My Soul ! He Cries
See Where He Bows His Sacred Head
He Bows His Head And Dies.

But Soon He’ll Break Death’s Envious Chain,
And In Full Glory Shine
O Lamb Of God, Was Ever Pain,
Was Ever Love, Like Thine ?
