354. ALAS AND DID MY SAVIOR BLEED
... ME HIR/0 El PECA DO
Rom 6.6 PASSION/ Jn 14.16 GRACE
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// where I first saw the light,
And the burden of my heart rolled away;
It was there by faith, I received my sight
And with him I am happy every day.
2
Thy body slain, sweet Jesus thine,
And bathed in its own blood
For vile sinners such as I,
His love for all withstood.
3
He conquered death, what mighty deed!
Exalted be His namel
His grace shall ever be my need,
By Him my fears are tame.
4
Though He arose, I'm not alone,
He sent His Holy Ghost,
The mighty Spirit I have known,
His love my heart enclosed.

1 Car 9.2 JOY/ Ro 10.15 ELECTION
I feel so very glad, just like the very first time that I heard,
The sweet voice of my God, glory to Him;
When I was told of my Jesus,
I heard of the word they were preaching,
That there's a Man of God.
