(Part of a series singing through the hymnbook I grew up with: Great Hymns of the Faith)
1
“Man of Sorrows!” what a name
For the Son of God, who came
Ruined sinners to reclaim!
Hallelujah, what a Savior!
2
Bearing shame and scoffing rude,
In my place condemned He stood —
Sealed my pardon with His blood:
Hallelujah, what a Savior!
3
Guilty, vile and helpless we,
Spotless Lamb of God was He;
Full atonement! can it be?
Hallelujah, what a Savior!
4
Lifted up was He to die,
“It is finished”, was His cry;
Now in heav’n exalted high:
Hallelujah, what a Savior!
5
When He comes, our glorious King,
All His ransomed home to bring;
Then anew this song we’ll sing;
Hallelujah, what a Savior!
