506. Man of Sorrows! What a name

1 Man of Sorrows! What a name
for the Son of God, who came
ruined sinners to reclaim!
Hallelujah! What a Saviour!

2 Bearing shame and scoffing rude,
in my place condemned he stood;
sealed my pardon with his blood;
hallelujah! What a Saviour!

3 Guilty, vile and helpless we;
spotless Lamb of God was he:
full atonement — can it be?
Hallelujah! What a Saviour!

4 Lifted up was he to die,
'It is finished' was his cry;
now in heaven exalted high:
hallelujah! What a Saviour!

5 When he comes, our glorious King,
all his ransomed home to bring,
then anew this song we'll sing:
'Hallelujah! What a Saviour!'
