Author: Samuel Wesley Hymnal: Our Great Redeemer's Praise #232 (2022) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Behold the Savior of mankind
nailed to the shameful tree!
How vast the love that Him inclined
to bleed and die for thee!
2 Hark, how He groans, while nature shakes,
and earth's strong pillars bend;
the temple's veil in sunder breaks;
the solid marbles rend.
3 'Tis done! the precious ransom's paid!
"Receive my soul!" He cries.
See where He bows His sacred head;
He bows His head and dies.
4 But soon He'll break death's envious chain,
and in full glory shine.
O Lamb of God, was ever pain,
was ever love like Thine? Topics: Jesus, Suffered, Dead, and Buried Lent and Passion Scripture: Psalm 22 Languages: English Tune Title: WINDSOR
