The Cross Medley.
Man of Sorrows, what a name for the Son of God who came, ruined sinners to reclaim. Hallelujah, what a Savior!
Bearing shame and scoffing rude, in my place condemned he stood.
Sealed my pardon with his blood. Hallelujah! What a Savior! From his head, his hands, his feet. Sorrow and love flow me, looking down. There is such love and sorrow O thorns compost, so rich a ground. Amazing love, how can it be that thou, my God, shouldst die for me. Guilty vile and helpless weak, spotless Lamb of God was he. Full atonement, can it be? Hallelujah! What a Savior! Were the whole realm of nature mine, that were a present far too small, the so amazing So be that. He lets my soul lie flat by the, the blazing light. How can it be that thou That thou, my God, shouldst die for me. That thou, my God, shouldst die for me.
