Author: Ray Palmer Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #10416 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 O Jesus, sweet the tears I shed,
While at Thy cross I kneel,
Gaze on Thy wounded, fainting head,
And all Thy sorrows feel.
2 My heart dissolves to see Thee bleed,
This heart so hard before;
I hear Thee for the guilty plead,
And grief o’erflows the more.
3 ’Twas for the sinful Thou didst die,
And I a sinner stand;
What love speaks from Thy dying eye,
And from each piercèd hand!
4 I know this cleansing blood of Thine
Was shed, dear Lord, for me;
For me, for all—O grace divine!
Who look by faith to Thee.
5 O Christ of God! O spotless Lamb!
By love my soul is drawn;
Henceforth for ever Thine I am,
Here life and peace are born.
6 In patient hope the cross I’ll bear,
Thine arm shall be my stay;
And Thou, enthroned, my soul shalt spare,
On Thy great judgment day. Languages: English Tune Title: ALEXANDRIA
