Capo 1 for recorded key
E
Alas, and did my Savior bleed,
B7
And did my Savior die?
E
Would He devote that sacred head,
B7 E
For such a thing as I?
[Refrão]E
At the cross, at the cross,
B7
Where I first saw the light,
E
And the burden of my heart rolled a-way,
A E
It was there by faith I re-ceived my sight,
B7 E
And now I am happy all the day!
E
Was it for crimes that I have done,
B7
He groaned upon the tree?
E
A-mazing pity, grace unknown,
B7 E
And love be-yond de-gree.
Chorus
E
Well might the sun in darkness hide,
B7
And shut His glories in?
E
When Christ the mighty Maker died,
B7 E
For man the creature's sin.
Chorus
E
But drops of grief can ne'er repay,
B7
The debt of love I owe.
E
Here, Lord, I give myself to You,
B7 E
That's all that I can do!
Chorus
