Verse 1

Alas! and did my Savior bleed, and did my Sovereign die?
Would he devote that sacred head for sinners such as I?

Chorus

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!
