Lyrics
Verse 1: Cross of Jesus, cross of sorrow, Where the blood of Christ was shed, Perfect man on thee, did suffer, Perfect God on thee has bled!
Verse 2: Here the King of all the ages, Throned in light ere worlds could be, Robed in mortal flesh is dying, Crucified by sin for me.
Verse 3: O mysterious condescending! O abandonment sublime! Very God Himself is bearing All the sufferings of time!
Verse 4: Ever more for human failure By His passion we can plead; God has borne all mortal anguish, Surely He will know our need.
