“Man of Sorrows,” What a Name!
(1838-1876)
“Man of sorrows,” what a name
For the Son of God Who came
Ruined sinners to reclaim!
Refrain:
Hallelujah! What a Savior!
Bearing shame and scoffing rude,
In my place condemned He stood;
Sealed my pardon with His blood—
Guilty, vile, and helpless we,
Spotless Lame of God was He;
“Full atonement”—can it be?
Lifted up was He to die,
“It is finished” was His cry;
Now in heaven exalted on high!
When He comes, our glorious King,
All His ransomed home to bring,
Then anew this song we’ll sing—
