Nathan Clark George - Alas And Did My Savior Bleed

What an amazing old hymn written by Isaac Watts and wonderfully performed by Nathan Clark George . May this prepare your heart and mind to worship God with a thankful heart. Beautiful words.



Alas!and did my Saviour bleed,
And did my sovereign die?
Would he devote that sacred head
For sinners such as I?

Was it for sins that I had done
He groaned upon the tree?
Amazing pity, grace unknown,
And love beyond degree!

Well might the sun in darkness hide
And shut its glories in
When God, the mighty maker, died
For his own creature’s sin.

Thus might I hide my blushing face
While his dear cross appears,
Dissolve my heart in thankfulness,
And melt my eyes to tears
.
But tears of grief cannot repay
The debt of love I owe;
Here, Lord, I give myself away:
It’s all that I can do.
