lyrics
"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!
Guilty, vile, and helpless me, Spotless Lamb of God was He. Full atonement! Can it be? Hallelujah! What a Savior!
Lifted up was He to die; "It is finished," was His cry; Now in Heaven exalted high! Hallelujah! What a Savior! (Refrain)
When He comes, our glorious King, all His ransomed home to bring Then anew this song we'll sing: Hallelujah! What a Savior!
(Refrain)
