Alas And Did My Savior Bleed (And did my Sovereign die)
1) Alas, and did my Savior bleed,
and did my Sovereign die?
Would He devote that sacred head
for such a worm as I?
Was ist for sins that I had done,
He groaned upon the tree?
Amazing pity, grace unknown
and love beyond degree.
Refr.: 1.-2.
My God, why would You shed Your blood,
so pure an undefiled,
to make a sinful one like me
Your chosen, precious child?
2) Well might the sun in darkness hide,
and shut His glories in,
when Christ, the mighty Maker, died,
for man, the crature's sin.
Feiert Jesus! 3 219
