Man of sorrows

Also known as: Hallelujah! What a Saviour

by Philip P. Bliss

Lyrics

Man of Sorrows! What a name for the Son of God who came ruined sinners to reclaim: hallelujah! What a Saviour! Mocked by insults harsh and crude, in my place condemned He stood, sealed my pardon with His blood: hallelujah, what a Saviour! Guilty, vile, and helpless, we; spotless Lamb of God was He, full atonement can it be? Hallelujah, what a Saviour! Lifted up, was He, to die; “it is finished!” was His cry; now in heaven exalted high: hallelujah, what a Saviour! When He comes, our glorious King, all His ransomed home to bring, then anew this song we’ll sing: hallelujah, what a Saviour!
