En la vergonzosa cruz

Representative Text

1 En la vergonzosa cruz
padeció por mí, Jesús;
Por la sangre que vertió,
mis pecados Él expió.
Lavará de todo mal
ese rojo manantial,
El que abrió por mí Jesús
en la vergonzosa cruz.

Coro:
Sí, fue por mí,
Sí, fue por mí,
Fue por mí, murió Jesús
en la vergonzosa cruz.

2 ¡Oh, qué amor, qué inmenso amor
reveló mi Salvador!
La maldad que hice yo,
al suplicio le llevó.
Ahora a ti mi todo doy,
cuerpo y alma tuyo soy;
Mientras permanezca aquí,
hazme siempre fiel a ti. [Coro]

3 Yo de Cristo sólo soy,
a seguirle presto estoy;
Al bendito Redentor
serviré con firme amor;
Sea mi alma ya su hogar,
y mi corazón su altar;
Vida emana, paz y luz,
del Calvario, de la cruz. [Coro]

Graham, Sarah. (Lindsay, Ontario, c. 1854--1889). Salvation Army. This amateur song-writer joined the Army as a result of unexpectedly hearing two of its members sing a duet of hers at a local meeting. Most of the songs she proceeded to write achieved only regional use, but a few found their way into the Army's international repertoire. Her associates tried, but failed, to help her overcome her depression which overtook her after her fiance's sudden death, which, they felt, hastened her own. --Hugh D.
