Text:"Man of Sorrows," What a Name
Author:Philip P. Bliss
Tune:MAN OF SORROWS
Composer:Philip P. Bliss

151. "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 Savior!

2 Bearing shame and scoffing rude,
in my place condemned He stood;
sealed my pardon with His blood;
Hallelujah! what a Savior!

3 Guilty, vile, and helpless we;
spotless Lamb of God was He;
full atonement, can it be?
Hallelujah! what a Savior!

4 Lifted up was He to die,
"It is finished," was His cry;
now in heav'n exalted high;
Hallelujah! what a Savior!

5 When He comes, our glorious King,
all His ransomed home to bring,
then anew this song we'll sing:
Hallelujah! what a Savior!
