Author: A. A. Payn Hymnal: Songs of the Century #107 (1900) First Line: On the cross my Savior died Refrain First Line: O 'twas love that passeth understanding Lyrics: 1 On the cross my Savior died,
Yes, for me was crucified,
Hallelujah, hallelujah!
He endured the sin and shame,
Hallelujah! Praise his name,
That he should die for me.
Refrain:
O ‘twas love that passeth understanding,
Hallelujah! hallelujah!
O ‘twas love that passeth understanding,
That Christ should die for me.
2 From his glorious realm of light,
To a world of sin-curst night,
Hallelujah! hallelujah!
Jesus came my soul to save
From the terrors of the grave;
Hallelujah! Praise his name. [Refrain]
3 Was such love as this e'er known?
Was such love to mortals shown?
Hallelujah! hallelujah!
That my Lord his life would give
That my sinful soul might live!
Hallelujah! Praise his name. [Refrain]
4 This my daily song shall be,
Jesus Christ has died for me;
Hallelujah! hallelujah!
Though the waves about me roll.
They shall not o'erwhelm my soul;
Hallelujah! Praise his name. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [On the cross my Savior died]
