None But the Sinless Man

Representative Text

1 What if my heart should feel
The load my Saviour felt
When for my sins He prayed, and wept,
And bled, as there He knelt?

Refrain:
None but the sinless Man,
The apple of God’s eye,
Could pay redemption’s fearful price,
And so He had to die!

2 What if my lips should touch
The cup my Saviour’s met
When in His agony of soul
He wrestled with my debt? [Refrain]

3 What if my hands and feet
Were nailed to Calv’ry’s cross,
That for my sins could not atone,
Nor take away my dross? [Refrain]

4 What if this heart of mine
Were pierced with cruel spear?
Yea, death itself would surely fail
To make my record clear. [Refrain]
