"Man of Sorrows," What a Name!

246 "Man of Sorrows," What a Name!

1 Man of sorrows! what a name
   For the Son of God who came
   Ruined sinners to reclaim!
   Hallelujah, what a Savior!

2 Bearing shame and scoffing rude,
   In my place condemned He stood,
   Sealed my pardon with His blood;
   Hallelujah, what a Savior!

3 Guilty, vile, and helpless we,
   Spotless Lamb of God was He;
   Full atonement! can it be?
   Hallelujah, what a Savior!

4 Lifted up was He to die,
   "It is finished," was His cry;
   Now in heaven exalted high,
   Hallelujah, what a Savior!

5 When He comes, our glorious King,
   All His ransomed home to bring,
   Then anew this song we'll sing,
   Hallelujah, what a Savior!
