At The Cross

Alas! and did my Savior bleed
And did my Sov’reign die?
Would He devote that sacred head
For sinners such as I?
Refrain:
At the cross, 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 now I am happy all the day!

Well might the sun in darkness hide
And shut his glories in,
When Christ, the mighty Maker died,
For man the creature’s sin.

Me hirió el pecado, fui a Jesús.
Mostréle mi dolor;
Perdido, errante, vi su luz,
Bendijo me en su amor.
Coro
En la cruz, en la cruz,
Do primero Vi la luz,
Y las manchas de mi alma yo lave;
Fue allí por fe do vi a Jesús,
Y siempre feliz con el seré.

Sobre una cruz, mi buen Señor
Su sangre derramo,
Por este pobre pecador
A quien así salvo.
