Alas and did my Savior bleed And did my Sovereign die Would He devote that sacred head For such a wretch as I At the cross, at the cross Where I first saw the light And the burden of my heart rolled away It was there by faith I received my sight And now I am happy all the day Thus might I hide my blushing face While Calvary's cross appears Dissolve my heart in thankfulness And melt mine eyes to tears At the cross, at the cross Where I first saw the light And the burden of my heart rolled away It was there by faith I received my sight And now I am happy all the day
