He bears between the Roman guard the weight of all our woe; a stumbling figure, bowed and scarred, I see my Savior go. 2 He hangs, by whom the world was made, beneath the darkened sky; the everlasting ransom paid, I see my Savior die. He shares on high his Father’s throne, who once in mercy came; for all his love to sinners shown I sing my Savior’s name. Used With Tune: A PURPLE ROBE
