SS&S 151 Behold the Saviour of mankind

SS&S 151:  Behold the Saviour of mankind

1. Behold the Saviour of mankind

Nailed to the shameful tree;

How vast the love that Him inclined

To bleed and die for thee !

 

2 Hark, how He groans, while nature shakes,

And earth's strong pillars bend;

The temple's vail in sunder breaks,

The solid marbles rend.

 

3 ‘Tis done ! the precious ransom's paid;

"Receive My soul !" He cries;

See where He bows His sacred head—

He bows His head and dies.

 

4 But soon He'll break death's envious chain,

And in full glory shine :

O Lamb of God, was ever pain,

Was ever love, like Thine ?
