Alas! And Did My Savior Bleed

Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Hymnal: Christian Worship #410 (2021) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Scripture: Mark 15:33-41 Lyrics: 1 Alas! And did my Savior bleed, and did my Sov'reign die? Would he devote that sacred head for such a worm as I? 2 Was it for crimes that I had done he groaned upon the tree? Amazing pity, grace unknown, and love beyond degree! 3 Well might the sun in darkness hide, and shut its glories in when God, the mighty maker, died for his own creatures' sin. 4 Thus might I hide my blushing face while his dear cross appears, dissolve my heart in thankfulness, and melt mine eyes to tears. 5 But drops of grief can ne'er repay the debt of love I owe; here, Lord, I give myself away — 'tis all that I can do.

When I Survey the Wondrous Cross

Author: Isaac Watts (1674-1748) Hymnal: Common Praise (1998) #386 (1998) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Scripture: Mark 15 Lyrics: 1 When I survey the wondrous cross on which the Prince of glory died, my richest gain I count but loss, and pour contempt on all my pride. 2 Forbid it, Lord, that I should boast, save in the cross of Christ, my God; all the vain things that charm me most, I sacrifice them to his blood. 3 See, from his head, his hands, his feet, sorrow and love flow mingled down; did e’er such love and sorrow meet, or thorns compose so rich a crown? 4 Were the whole realm of nature mine, that were an offering far too small; love so amazing, so divine, demands my soul, my life, my all.
