Easter Hymns (Part 3) - Ryan

Ryan Baitzel Mar 18, 2008

This week... I am trying to reflect on some of the great hymns, as I prepare my heart for Easter... Feel free to join me this week in this discipline as I update my blog all week with the great hymns.
 
Man of Sorrows! What a Name
(Hallelujah! What a Savior!)
Words & Music: Philip P. Bliss

Man of Sorrows! what a name
For the Son of God, Who came
Ruined sinners to reclaim.
Hallelujah! What a Savior!

Bearing shame and scoffing rude,
In my place condemned He stood;
Sealed my pardon with His blood.
Hallelujah! What a Savior!

Guilty, vile, and helpless we;
Spotless Lamb of God was He;
Full atonement can it be?
Hallelujah! What a Savior!

Lifted up was He to die;
"It is finished!" was His cry;
Now in heaven exalted high.
Hallelujah! What a Savior!

When He comes, our glorious King,
All His ransomed home to bring,
Then anew His song we'll sing:
Hallelujah! What a Savior!
