190. Alone

1 It was alone the Saviour prayed
In dark Gethsemane;
Alone He drained the bitter cup
And suffered there for me.

Chorus:
Alone, alone, He bore it all alone;
He gave Himself to save His own,
He suffered, bled and died alone, alone.

2 It was alone the Saviour stood
In Pilate’s judgment hall;
Alone the crown of thorns He wore
Forsaken thus by all. [Chorus]

3 Alone upon the cross He hung
That others He might save;
Forsaken then by God and man
Alone, His life He gave. [Chorus]
